I used Randy'Ring and pinion. They sell complete kits and are very reasonable on prices. Do a search onthe net for them. I'm in Florida on vacation and don't have the # infront of me :cheers:

I used Zip Corvette and talked to Justin and I have no complaints of their service. I've used Zip off and on since I started driving Vettes.

What you'll need to do the job is the pumpkin/guts, rear cover/batwing, the c-beam that mounts to the rear and tranny, and the manual driveshaft. You'll have to swap over the yoke from your old driveshaft since it's different than the manuals. Now's also a good time to change out the U-joints if they're old sicne everything will be apart anyway.

check out Exotic Muscle. http://www.exoticmuscle.com
They have the kits for the Corvette to swap from D36 to D44. Eventually, I would like to do the conversion as well, so I have started to look around.
