There are several reasons for going with a 65 in my view. The main one in
this case being that 200.00 is the price of a 65 T/F when you find one which
admittedly could take a little searching. If the 64 T/F was 50.00 which is
what you will get one for with a little patience, then it would be more
tempting. Reason #2 is its neat to have the trick setup. Thats why rodders
put jag independants in rather than 9 inch Fords.They both work fine but the
IRS is tricker. Reason #3 is back in the day folks ran 7 inch tires as
opposed to sticky drag radials. I would like to see how many max wedge and
Hemis run ball and trunions today. I waited for the 65 trans to show up and
I was happy. Ultimately of course, its personal choice. Thats what makes old
cars fun.    mike  63 330

I would consider the tranny now.  It may be a few dollars more than
others across the country but it is almost in your hands and you do not
have to pay for shipping.

As far as the 65 tail shaft, if you happen to find one somewhere then
change it.

As Don Dulmage has said (at least I think it was him) the Ball and
Trunion joint worked fine with the 426 wedges and the Hemi's back in 64
why would it not work now?

As was previously stated about the torque converter whether a 64 or 65
tranny you will still have to change the input shaft if you want to go
to a more performance enhanced unit, so once again I feel that the 64
tranny you have looked at should make it's way under your car.

Good luck and this is one man's opinion.
