Does anyone know of a good reference for what parts can or can't be swapped between different models? For example, I have a '67 B/C 833 I want to put in an A-body. Will the tailshaft parts and input shaft bearing retainer from an A/F overdrive 833 swap over? Are there any good web sites or books out there?

Tailshaft housing off the A O/D 30 spline output shaft trans will work. Mainshaft is different. Bearing retainer may swap, depends on front bearing size. I have some info available here:

Or you can always send me an email with questions.

Thanks for the reply, Dan. I guess I should have stated the '67 833 is from a 383 and has a 4.8" retainer.
Did you mean that the tailshaft AND housing will swap? It's an iron A-body OD with the big yoke.

A 67 383 would not have a 4.8 retainer , that size retainer didn't start till the 68 model year.

What Dan said is if the trans has a 30 spline tailshaft housing (many alum tailshaft od a/f body 833 are sized to the 27 spline 904 size) it will swap but the MAINSHAFT, the piece the gears ride, on will not , the spot for 3rd gear(in an Od it's 4th) is a different diameter ... smaller.
