When I swapped the Tremec into my '79 I was unable to find a trans yoke that took the same size U-joint that was in the driveshaft. My solution was to source a combination U-joint. I don't remember exactly what the sizes required were. 1350/1310 sticks out in my mind but don't quote me.
Just look at the pinion yoke on the diff. If it uses u-bolts to hold the joint it is a 1310, if it uses straps and bolts it is a 1330, 1350 was never optioned on vettes but will fit since the spline count and diameter is the same as the Chevy 12 bolt. 1350 will hit the tunnel of a C3 on the passenger side. 1310 & 1330 will not-unless there was glass work done from damage. Tremec usually came with 1310, The Keisler 1310 slip yoke we had leaked and broke under load. Mark Williams makes a strap type slip yoke which corvettes need but expect to pay an arm and a leg, or about $450
Understood - not stock. But is there any advantage to this ? Or just did a rebuild or from another source and snagged whatever was in the shelf
Not positive, but I suspect your car was originally delivered with a 1310 differential yoke and somewhere down the line, a 1330 yoke was installed, either through a rebuild/repair of the differential or because the differential was replaced with one that had a 1330 yoke. The 1330 yoke was introduced with the automatic transmission. So, faced with the situation of a drive shaft with a 1310 u-joint and a differential with a 1330 pinion yoke, the options are: a) replace the pinion yoke, b) replace/modify the driveshaft to accept a 1330 or c) install a 1310/1330 combo u-joint. Clearly, option c is the least expensive.
