actually,  thats not quite true.  in '69 or so they moved the mounting
location on the tailshaft housing so they could start using a single 
crossmember for both 4spds, 3spd, & autos.   Just like the 64-65's had 
two cross members, one for a 4spd, and one for autos & 3spds,  66-69 
or so B-bodies used two different crossmembers as well...  around 70,
they went to a single corssmember.  For a short period of time,
New Process cast a B-body tailshaft that had *both* mount provisions
as a changeover item.

Another note on tailshafts: especially for Neal, should he try to track
down a 64-65 A-833.   Believe it or not, there were *two* different
tailshaft housings using on the 64-65 B/C A-833s.  both of course, were
the same length, had the same shifter provision, and were both
ball and trunions. The difference was the isolator mounting flange
on the bottom.  B-bodies used a narrower flange to make use of the
2265836 & 2401653 isolator (mount) that was used on 1962-1965
A-Bodies (all, 3spd, 4spd, & auto) and 64-65 B-body 4spds,  the 
C-body variant of the A-833 used a wider flange to mate a C-body 
isolator 2460888 to the tailshaft housing.  Odd, but true.  see the
pics at http://www.imperialservices.net/  I have one of each of
the trannies, and I have "studied up" on them.
