Is it possible to remove the short tailshaft and install the longer tailshaft and output shaft from either the BB or SB trans ? Thanks. Speed is only a question of money: "Just how fast do you want to go?"

You may need to swap the gear sets along with the output shaft. As far as the shafts and tail housing are concerned, they are interchangable between the big and small blocks.
