If you have a short tail 318, you will need to cut the front shaft, to fit the Saginaw trans. Longhorn
How big of an issue will there be if I don't have the spline on the slip yoke match? Also how do I tell between the long tail and short tail? Last question the 4 speed is coming out of a car transmission will that be OK?
