It appears that way from a measurement point of view but the street car guy=
s talk about drive shaft differences unless I am misunderstanding. I guess =
I could break out my service manual and see what it says.

I assume it is the same as the big TRs. The OD transmissions have a longer =
transmission main shaft. Input shafts and drive shafts should be the same. =
In other words, you can swap a non OD for an OD and only have to worry abou=
t differences in the rear mount.
Make sense?
