[FC] '64 Axle into '61 Greenbrier Help/Thanks

Thanks everyone who replied with your suggestions.  Although I've yet to 
put the powertrain back in, the differential did bolt right up to the 
trans, the four-speed input shaft works (the three-speed shaft was too 
short), and I'm using the '64 flywheel, PP, and TO bearing.  The only thing 
is that the clutch fork pivot ball is the same height on both axles, so I 
guess that's probably not a bad thing(?).

Regarding vendors, I got one part from the local Corvair shop, Rear-Engine 
Specialists in Golden, CO and he pointed me to a local supply house for the 
dipstick tube o-ring that he didn't have in stock, so I ended up not using 
either Clark's or Underground.  One good thing about Clark's website is 
that they seem to have their entire catalog on-line, whereas Underground 
requires you to have the main (paper) catalog in your hands?  Or maybe I 
didn't navigate Underground's site correctly...

Thanks again,
Kevin
