On my 56 I have a 59 389 with a
55 flywheel,
55 clutch fork and linkage,
58 bellhousing,
58 rear mounts on the bellhousing (Originally slotted the holes on the 55 mounts and they worked)
Saginaw 4 speed, and yoke,
The original driveshaft worked ( my car was originally an auto)
It works and drives very well
Unless your trying to use your original column shifter,
IMHO I'd find a more modern transmission.
The gm manuals, 3-4 speeds late 60's into the 80' shift smooth, quiet, you can get shifters for them, and still readily available.
Hope this helps.
