Re: transmission woes
it will bolt right up and if you have the long tailshaft the drive line just might be the same also. the linkage rods are a bit different but some guys are maken em work just fine. I think GM might have put some in the 65 I know they used em 66

Re: transmission woes
A friend had a 3 speed full syncro in a '71 1/2 ton FWD. I never liked driving it that much. I had a muncie 4 speed in my '67 C10 that was much more satisfying. I would look for one of those unless you are set on a column shift.
