you're welcome 66redw/white - hope it helps. My ol 3-speed was good to go, but wanted a 5-speed so bad I yanked it (have a pretty deep rear, cruisin highway, which is all there is around here inthe desert) was not so fun... No regrets though - also prefer floor shift vice column (51 to 49 - it's close...) so it was a no brainer of a choice. I felt a little guilty about the trans swap, truck pretty original, but I have no plans to sell it and want to build it how I want to build it, so, there you go.
