Is there any simple workaround (other than drilling new mounting holes) for the cross member locating 6" further to the rear? >>>>
If it's like my 69, it will just slide back. There should be more than one set of holes. Obviously I need a new slip yoke. Any recommendations for a manufacturer for this and the U-joint? Is it absolutely necessary to "trim" the drive shaft due to the TH400 being ~1/2 inch longer, or is there some other solution? >>>>> You might want to just get a different driveshaft from a junkyard. If you trim yours it will have to be re-balanced. It certainly can be done, but it would be easier to just swap in one that fits. Send me your zip code and I'll see if I can find one near you on the junkyard network. It would appear the torque converter is a straight swap. Am I missing something here, or is this true? >>>>> Not sure. I could check on the store computer to see if it shows the same p/n. I'll try to do that later today. One tip: of course you will want to make sure that the torque converter is properly seated. It will click into place. Make sure that after you bolt it to the flywheel, you can turn the flywheel by hand. If it's jammed up (from the TC not being all the way in), you'll damage your new transmission.
