33 Hot Rod with 700R4 Transmission Question

[NAZ]

Don't have photos of a similar setup but if the spline is only engaging 2" that's not nearly enough. If that's FFR supplied shaft for that particular application then they either set you the wrong one or there is something unexpected in your buddy's engine (or rear axle) installation. Be advised that in the HR there is room to move a SBC to the rear quite a ways and still have adequate clearance to the firewall. But if using the large HEI distributor not as much as using the smaller conventional cap distributor.

Now if you would have only gone with the Entabulator instead of the old fashioned 700R4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac7G7xOG2Ag

Thanks Naz,

I was hoping you'd chime and confirm my fears.
Even my stupid short yoke for my ZF 6-Speed has the yoke further in the transmission than my buddy's 700R4.
I definitely thing we got the wrong driveshaft.

Thanks Again & Love The Entabulator Videos!
