Anyone running Marlin's dual mini cases behind a SBC?
My 25 has a Chevy 283 with sm465 & np205. I'm looking to toss the 205 and go with dual mini t-cases with either 2.28/2.28 or 2.28/4.7. It looks like Marlin's 465/toybox adapter uses the 10 spline output. I hope that's not a weak point. I found 30 or 32 spline output shafts available for the 465.
I was hoping to save some d-shaft length, but it appears the length will be about the same as what I have now or slightly longer
. I was counting the length as 1.2" for 465 adapter, 6.5" for reduction box & adapter, and 13" for mini case. The 465/205 coupler is at least 6", and the 205 is about 13".
I was going to trade the 283 for a 350 or 292. Looks like it will be a 350, and I'll have to push it forward
