I was looking at putting a turbo 350 in my 67 when I change out the 6cy for the 8. I have a parts truck that has a powerglide tranny and driveshaft. If I'm using the short tail 350 so shouldn't I be able to use this driveshaft as a bolt in? If not how much do I need to shorten the 3speed driveshaft?

I believe the driveshaft is the same length.Be sure you use the same bolt holes with the frame mounts.6 cyl,and V8 mounting holes are in different locations.
