Hi Crowbar,
Yes, the crossmember that holds the mounts for the old style bellhousing will have to come out. I removed mine while the engine and transmission was out, using an air chizzel and you will need to use a cross member under the transmission support on the th350. The cross member from a '70 will work, or it did in my
'64 cab on a '66 frame. The holes were already in place in the frame, but a '66 came from the factory with th350 as an option so a '65 may not have the holes. You will need to go to Auto Zone to get a "U" Joint and you will need to get a Trans. yoke for an automatic transmission. If you need to know more, "E" mail me. My address is on my profile.
