David:
Stand corrected. The Saulsbury rear end will fit under the early
car too, if you ever wondered. My old 65 B (now deceased) was fitted with
an all synchro box and 77 rear axle assembly.
The only problem (short of Larry's comments) is that I had a devil
of a time reinstalling the engine onto the insitu transmission. The bell
housing would not lift high enough without clearancing the firewall for the
starter bulge. This may have been complicated by the deeper than stock oil
pan. Next time I'll be sure to pull the entire power unit.
