You'll have to swap another tailshaft onto it. That is unless you don't have a bench seat, or you have room for a shifter that is further back. I'm wanting to do this swap, but I don't have the money or time right now. The only problem seems to be the clutch package, which various people have found ways to solve. Email me if you want to chat, or if you need more info. As far as the 327 goes, it would depend on how beefy you build the engine. If it's a completely stock (really mild) 327 it should hold up to the power. The T-5 trannies aren't that strong. Hope this helps. John [email protected]
