Hi All.. I purchased an 80% complete 1959 chevy napco with some alterations. The previous owner installed a new chevy 350 w/a 700r trans. The issue i have come across is the 700r is much longer than the original manual trans, therefore mating the drive shaft from trans (much shorter than original) to transfer case is a major problem. I live in the sticks and brought it to what I thought was a reputable transmission shop and they recommended that i move the transfer case back, shorten rear drive shaft to accommodate a longer center shaft. Has anyone done this and could enlighten me any good advise?
