long tail 727

westexcruzer · 05-17-2008, 01:27 PM

I need to know if I will encounter many problems installing a long shaft 727 (out of a pickup) in a 65 Belvedere? I can get a small block bellhousing 727 out of a pickup relatively cheap, however the short tail 727's have been harder to find. I realize I will have to shorten the driveline, I want to know if I might encounter any other problems. Thanks, Jake

they might have a different neutral safety switch but the switch and valve body lever can be swapped out. just watch the spring and steel ball that rides on the lever.
