I beleive what texman wat's to know is if he can convert an open drive trans to work with his cloed drive axle. The only conversion i know of is the one for the Saginaw 3.11:1 first gear 4 speed, which is available from Patrick's. I don't know if that kit will work with a pre-War axle, though. There will be an issue with bolt pattern on the bellhousing, too, as that changed in '48.
