The actual splines on a 'Vette transmission are the same as a "regular" TH350, TH400, etc. so a "regular" yoke works fine.
Not on the one we have, the splines stop only a few inches down so a th400 yoke out of an other car doesn't slide in but two inches or so. The yoke my brother car is smooth the first few inches and obviously oversized, then the splines start about halfway the inside of the yoke.
