I couldnt sleep last night and when I was up all night I started to research ideas for my 55 Special. I tried to piece an idea together. I wanted to see what you guys thought. A big goal on my 55 is a semi stock appearance but make it a better driving car. I've figured out some of the simple stuff, now I'm working on the tougher stuff. The dynaflow in my car leaks and is just very slushy off the line, so I started thinking about that. I want to keep the stock suspension to maintain the nice buick ride, so swapping out the rear and control arms isn't something I like the idea of doing. I found a company that makes an adapter to bolt a Th350, 400, or 700r4 to a 53-56 nailhead. Then I found out the Corvette uses a torque tube and lots of people modify them. I found a few companies specializing in modifying torque tubes. This got me thinking, the tail shaft housing unbolts on most gm transmissions, so in theory couldn't I make an adapter that would bolt to the trans similar to the end of the factory dynaflow, and then the torque tube company could make me the custom shaft to go inbetween. Or is this just insanity?
