Yes, it is possible. You will need a cutting torch, several large
hammers,
and a giant shoe horn. I just put a 25 spline in my 1960 Sunbeam,
which
was configured for the standard four speed (10 spline). The 25 spline
overdirve is longer, and larger in diameter. I got my front and back
end
parts from Sunbeam specialties.
Good luck!
