Re: [AMC-List] trannie interchange question

[Mark Price <markprice242@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You are right the AMC T series trans uses the 10 spline by 1 1/8" input.
I was not thinking quite straight when I said 1 1/16" 
The T bird trans is different from the AMC. 
The closest match in shifter placement is the Chevette T5. The Chevette is shorter in the taihousing however.
