General Discussion / Re: 1st Gen Driveshaft Design - Did GM Make a Mistake?
« on: July 02, 2006, 07:45:31 PM »
This topic has been on my radar for many years also. When I started to look for all the correct, original drivetrain components for my big block '69 Camaro,
I became aware that THM400 equipped cars used the only "in-line yoke" driveshaft of that Camaro period. So many of the THM400 driveshafts I found out
there were non-in-line, so I passed on them. I own three of the THM400 driveshafts today and all are in-line. Not at all sure what this indicates though.
Is JohnZ following this topic? I'd like to hear his thoughts on this. If any such Engineer from that period is still with us, I'd love to hear from him.
