Re: 6l80e driveshaft yolk?

***UPDATE***

So I got the engine and tranny put in last night and today. The th400 yoke does indeed fit perfectly on the 6l80e!! I used the 73+ frame stands and rubber mounts with the corresponding dirty dingo sliders. Pulled the engine all the way forward on the sliders, reused the th400 tranny mount (bolted directly to the 6l80e), slid the tranny crossmember forward, drilled new holes in the frame for crossmember, and the driveshaft fit perfectly! No driveshaft modifications necessary!! The shift linkage is also very close to perfect. Needs a little tweaking, but should be able to work fine!! So once again, THE TH400 WILL WORK JUST FINE ON THE 6L80E TRANSMISSION!!!!
