I bought a newly rebuilt 1958 235 complete with a Powerglide transmission
online. For $1000 I figured I would take a chance and I hope that it would
fit easily into my 1951 Chevy 1/2-ton pickup. Can anyone who has done a
similar swap tell me what is involved?
Does the driveaxle need to be shortened?
Does a crossmember need to be moved or installed?
Will a firewall modification be necessary?
What is involved with rerouting the shifter linkage?
What else should I be considering?
