Re: Ok Its ON!!!!!

I wouldn't worry about what length someone elses driveshaft is. There's alot of different places these engines can end up after 40 years. Measure what YOUR truck needs and take it to a good driveline shop and hae both pieces ballanced together.

Re: Ok Its ON!!!!!

Tom, my old trans is a th350. I got the new crossmember from Early classic. for my set-up i wont have to mess with the drive line, you will though if youre replacing the 400. I got the bracket for the tv cable from bowtie also.....we may have to play with it a little to make it work with the S-charger.
