Fred,
Thanks a lot for your information. I'm trying a couple of different sources for those rods and will let you know if it works. I can't believe I'm the only guy who has put himself in this situation though maybe most keep their bell housing and transmission when changing engines and so it's not a problem for them. In my case I wanted the 3spd/OD that were with the engine more than the original 4 spd and the law of unintended consequences has caught up with me.......again.
