Re: building a pushbutton super build

[Dave Casey <dcasey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pretty sure you can only use a 65 tailshaft and housing to convert from B&T 
to slip yoke. The tailshaft housing is particular to those transmissions 
because they use a seperate park cable that attaches there.
That said, you can very easily build a bullet proof driveline using off the 
shelf parts to mate to the B&T tailshaft. I haven't done it, but it has been 
done.
The only difference between small and big block 727's is the case at the 
bellhousing. Internals are all interchangeable. I believe the Hemi 
transmissions got the beefier planetary too, no?
