Re: tremec swap
you'll need a diff bellhousin, diff shifter, front driveshaft yoke and you can grind the welds off your crossmember and reuse it.

Re: tremec swap
FRPP driveshaft will work, but you still have to change the front yolk. Output shaft splines on the TKO are different. D&D in Michigan sells the yolk for like $75 last time I checked.
Also going to need a different CLUTCH as the input splines are different as well.
