Fitment of the swapped trans is going to depends on exact type (259-T86-T85) and whether direct or OD (differing tail-shaft lengths and driveshaft length).

I think most of what you read regarding these swaps is ignoring the trans type, model year and focusing on modifying the trans mount.
Thanks for the dennysdriveshaft.com info. Looks like the actual one I would need is a Neapco 2-0291. Figures since it is about triple the price and out of stock. Take $20 out of petty cash and take the little thumb screw out to MickeyDs as a reward for the info.
