Re: keeping stock rear with a sbc & th350?

does your 36 have a 4 speed with parking brake on the rear of the trans?
a 32 or 34 with the standard 3 speed could use the stock driveshaft without any mods
the 4 speed will need to be shortened and a different yolk to slide in the trans
the 36 rearend is (approx) 4.90 open spool one wheel wonder (can someone confirm a ratio)
good if you want to pull stumps, not so good if you want more than 8 miles per gallon
