I’m told they made a change in the ‘bird tunnel in 56, to accommodate the T-85. I didn’t know that, so I put one in my 55 bird in place of the Fordomatic. So it should fit in a full size car. The bird had a reduced diameter drive shaft, and I used a cut down one from a car. It fit, but when bottomed the driveshaft hit the bolts for the seatbelts. I guess that why the bird had the smaller shaft originally.
