Will it fit up to my existing 235 without modification to my drive shaft? Is the overall length of this the same as the standard 3 speed without overdrive? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | if it's an original 58 OD 3 speed, yes it'll fit right in
