I have a CSI trans shield ( used only as a mock up on my Cuda race car) 
and a trans blanket (used) that I am going to put on ebay. If you are 
interested contact me off list. If you are using your car on the 
street, you may want the shield rather than the blanket. Not only is 
the blanket very heavy, but it holds heat and may get oil soaked, but I 
would rather have it than the shield in the event of a trans explosion..

Rich,

2. Any 8 3/4 center section wil bolt into your rear end but you'd 
better
read this article first. Here's the link and a quote:

http://www.autohobbydigest.com/8_75.html

A 1964 and later differential, or any Sure Grip differential, cannot be
used with 1959-1963 rearends and axles originally equipped with an open
differential. The original axles must be machined or original Sure Grip
length axles must be used.

Better to bolt in a 65 to 70 B body rear and get rid of the tappered
axles at the same time. That's what I plan to do on my 63 Fury. You'll
probably want to stick with a 742 or 489 center section behind that 400
hp and nitrous.

4. Take a look at this slick bolt on drive shaft loop that a friend of
mine from my old Charger group invented for Mopars. Here's his web site:

5. If you want one of the Lakewood fits all drive shaft loops I have a
brand new one still in the box on my shelf that you can have cheap.
