    I'm installing a 4.3 with a T350 + Dana 18 into my 57 CJ5, does the floor need any modification to fit the T350??

    Depends on where you mount the 4.3 I reckon...
    My Dad put a TH350 behind his Dauntless and didn't modify the floor, FWIW

    If it matters I just did a SBC swap w/ th350 and D18. All I had to do is cut the hole for the t/case shifter back by 8", bend them different and patch the hole where the old shifters were. Oh, my rear Drive shaft is about 11". Hope this helps http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af90/pvtcarrot/DSC06863.jpg
