trans swap

Would it be possible to swap in a th350 trans with a 9" tailshaft in place of the th200 in an 82 camaro if I had the driveshaft cut down 3 inches and used the torque arm adaption kit. Would anything else have to be done or is it even possible? Thanks

I went from a 200R to a standard 350 and it was a direct swap. You might be able to use a drivshaft from an overdrive car and not need to touch it.

So, would the torque arm adapter fit to the 9" tailhousing like the 6" one?

Not sure I think you might have to buy them for the different length trans. A standard 350 would be cheap and a direct swap..that would be my suggestion. Then the adapter would work.
