Yes, I'm using that transmission in my '70, and did so without any tunnel work.

There is an article where another person installed it into his '65 convertible wtihout any cutting:

Yep, completely happy with it; there are ways to make it stronger, too; places like clickclickracing.com has information, the Thunderbird and Cougar Club of America (TCCoA) have a lot of info in their tech sections, and a guy who regularly posts in both built a custom converter for me--dirtyd0g.

Go to either place for more info on the transmission itself, and between those forums and the link I provided earlier, I think you should be able to figure out what you need for your application.
