Re: 66 gmc c10 transmission swap to sm465

Yes, Jolly has some real good tips and pictures there. I like the driveshaft he used, nice piece. The only thing I read that wasn't quite correct was on the SM465 input shaft. He said the SM465 has a larger input shaft; this is true only for the SM465's that were used in the 2 ton and larger trucks that used the 1 1/2" input shaft. The 1/2, 3/4 and 1 ton SM 465 still used the 1 1/8" 10 spline input shaft.

But all in all, a very good and informative read.
