He said that he thinks that I will have to replace the tranmission crossmember to be able to use the transmission that I have.
Does anyone have any some better new than that? I would like to here that it will work with the stock one, but I want the truth what ever it may be.

If you use the transmission with the correct tailshaft length , everything will drop right in, hope that helps. | | |

You could bolt the engine up to the presant trans.
