Re: Notching the rear cab support for driveshaft

From my limited exposure to PB set-ups, they're already about 5° @ the driveline angle so dropping the tail of the trans will only increase that number. They also typically utilize 2pc shaft set-ups which minimize the possibility of interference.

On a one piece shaft, the floor reinforcement channel may need to be clearanced as needed as well as the rear cab wall sheet metal. My old '68 that got PB front + rear kits & utilized a 1pc shaft required notching. Sorry.... no pics though.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
