hey buddie i think your vette came with turbo 350 with 6 in tailhousing and some off the trucks came with 9 in tailhousing you need to ask for a short shaft 350 and the one out off a truck will have a diff servo in it will not shift as hard hope this helps johnny

Your right Dude the trucks have a longer tailshaft than the cars.
