Your driveshaft will have to be lengthen'd somewhere around 4 1/2 inches if I remember correctly.. It will also need a different yoke. The th400 has a much bigger output shaft and has more splines on it..
If I was you, (wich I was just in this situation a month ago) I would just sell your current driveshaft and buy a PST one or have one made..
By the time you get done paying someone to modify yours, you have basically spent close to the same amount as a new one and it's strength is questionable.
