RE: Ball-Trunion to UJoint

["Dennis C." <dennis.2914@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think you need to go to a different shop.  I have had my 63 Sport Fury 
with a 383 and 4-speed Borge Warner and my 64 with a 318 poly and 
automatic converted like shown in this link:

I don't recall the cost but I can say it was very reasonable.  These are 
off of the shelf parts any good drive shaft shop can get.
