Re: Trans question?

["Don H." <mopar4me@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It sounds as if you currently have a slant in your 330 - if so you would 
need a LA BH.  (I've got a 65 BH for a 4 speed and don't know if they were 
different than for a 3 speed).  V8 cranks may or may not have had a pilot 
bushing.  If it didn't you can use an early to  mid nineties Dakota bushing 
that fits perfectly (costs $6-7.00 at NAPA).
