Correct C6 Transmission for a GT500 from 1967 or what is different

I just want to make a thread for the C6 Transmission for the 1967 GT500 as I just want to make some things sure.

1. The earlier GT500 had the PGB-R tag and the later build GT500 had the PGB-R1 tag
2. The shifter lever for the Mustangs/ Shelbys was different to the Trucks and column shifted cars
3. The main body and bellhousing is from aluminum
4. The tail shaft was also from aluminum (RF-C6AP-7A040-A-ER)
5. The Servo was an H Servo

Did I forgot something? At the end of the day you can built every C6 with an aluminium shaft into a Shelby or Mustang C6 with the right shifter lever and Servo.

For the 68 CJ/KR 428s you will need the iron tailshaft.

Does someone here has nice pictures of a original or concours restored C6 for a 67?

Your statement that 68 has a cast iron tail shaft is misleading.  '68 GT500 is an aluminum tailshaft.  '68 KR is cast iron.

Ok no problem on this, I was not sure if all 68s recieved the iron tail shaft or just the 428CJ/KR as I had just one normal GT500 from 68 and that one had an iron shaft.
