    Looking for the long tailshaft housing, output shaft & yoke for
    a late 60's st-400 tranny.
    Possible trade - would include: short tailshaft housing, output shaft & yoke.
    Thanks,
    Tom :TU:

    st-400

    Hi Joe,
    The problem I am facing with the 455 swap
    is that inorder for the engine to fit I had to move it back 2".
    After moving the motor back I knew I would need a new driveshaft.
    I would prefer to go with a single piece driveshaft, but currently
    with the short shaft tranny the lenght would be questionable.
    I would like to be able to install the long shaft tranny housing to keep
    the driveshaft shorter.
    Let me know what you might want for the parts.
    Thanks,
    Tom :TU:

    I don't know if you are looking for the 9'' or the 13'' ,,,,, I know I have some of the 13'' housings, but not sure on the shaft yet.

    Tom,
    I'd be glad to trade my long tail parts for your short tail.... I have a '67 and a '71 here.....do you have a preference? If it's a go, maybe we could meet halfway. I'm located between Allentown and Philly.

    I have a 400 out of a 70 electra I think it is a long shaft. It has a crack in the main housing. I will trade for your parts . I live in Bethany Beach De. if you want to look at it. How long of a shaft do you need?
