I have #84 with a 302 engine and a 3550 trans, I pulled the trans from the bottom with some advice from custom cars, great guys with info when you deed it. first step for me was to take out the bolts on drive shaft ,#2 the 4 bolts holding the rear-end are pointing up, loosen to drop the rear-end down about 1" to 11/2" the nuts on top of the rear-end I used a crowfoot openend, work great. I cannot remember what size , sorry. do not take nuts all the way off this will let rear end down enough to pull driveshaft out of the trans and over the top of the rear-end flange to the passenger side of the car . #3 unbolt side pipes and drop trans down with jack now the drive shaft is moved forward over trans and down and back between the cross member it does not look like it will go, but it will with a little help. unbolt trans and move back from bell housing there is just enough room for the trans to clear , the tailshaft dust boot will have to be compressed but it will go. the hardest part for me was getting the driveshaft out of the trans because it was gulled to the bearing I just keep moving it around and using a hammer at the same time it finally came the whole job toke a better part of a afternoon but I bet I can change one now in about a hour with a lift.iI hope this helps
