Posting this up for a friend, here goes:

Its a 65 Mustang 3 speed and he has the T 10 4 Speed already. The problem as he says is that the shaft doesnt fit, does he need a new one? Or can he use it with some modifications?

Thanks

Oh boy man I had this girl once that told me my shaft wouldn't fit I said just bend over midget! but for real is he talkin about the input shaft to the motor or the drive shaft if it's the input shaft that doesnt fit he probally just need a new pilot bearing. but i'm guessing it's the driveline did he do a v8 swap? or is he just puttin a 4 speed in a 6cyl if the driveline is too long of course it can be shortened and rebalanced or he can take a couple measurements and a good driveline shop can make him a new one for probally around 200

+1 showtime I already talked to the guy and I told him he needs to get the correct driveshaft to fit, he looked into it and found one. He should be up and running now [patriot]
