Hello,
I am currently doing a transmission swap in a 79 4-door car from an auto to a 4spd. I'm having a hard time finding some concrete answers on what exactly I need to be looking for. Which one do I need to buy, long or short tail shaft? Drive shafts are pretty hard to find so i'd like to be able to use the one in the car already. Is there anything else i need to be tracking down?
Thanks for any and all help!

You need the driveshaft for whatever trans you are using. You'll need the crossmember, trans, driveshaft, pedal assembly, clutch cable, flywheel, clutch. That's just off the top of my head

You can buy either transmission, The long tailshaft four speed uses the same driveshaft as the automatic. Try to get the transmission as complete as possible. You don't really want to be trying to track down clutch forks or shifter parts. Don't be disappointed if the four speed turns out to be a noisy p.o.s. that pops out of reverse.

I too am wanting to swap trannies from a 4 speed to a 5 speed in an effort to get lower engine rpms when driving 60 mph. My 4 speed is in perfect shape and it does not slip out of gear in any condition or gear. Will I have trouble with the 5 speed???

Probably have trouble finding one. They are a better transmission though. You will either need a five speed x-member OR be able to build a custom one. The drive shaft is five speed specific too.
You'll need to cut a shifter hole in the correct location, and depending on the year of your car, you might not have the necessary bolt holes for the x-member.
Some people have needed to massage the trans tunnel a bit, others haven't...
Like I said, good luck finding one.
