A quick WEB search on Pat's 67 Nova indicates he is located in El Dorado, Arkansas, which I should have surmised by his "SEArk.Net" EM address. Too far for me. Oh, well. RT Oroville, CA where you at

You should not have to change the spline at all. The spline fits into the clutch plate, not the engine. The issue is whether the transmission will bolt up to the Chevy bell housing. My logic says, "I

I think there needs to be a combination of things to "remedy" this because there most likely are a combination of causes. I would suspect that the center of the drum has rusted to the axle & the brak
