Yes - you could even run two additional PTO’s with a SM465.Can you run the PTO with a manual transmission? If that th400 blows up I would put a manual back in

Chevy Dump Bed - PTO from TH400/NP205, Other specs coming in
- Thread starter 2Dogs
- Start date
I ordered vinyl floor cover from http://www.73-87chevytrucks.com/
It comes with the padding/insulation which I need as I would like some temperature and noise control.
I am not sure I want the expense of dynamat - is there a decent spray on product I can use under the padding? I am thinking of the thick black stuff you put on fender wells and frames, the name escapes my very tired (weak at best) pea-brain.

Hmmm, the existing Warn 10K is non-functional, maybe I need to research PTO winches.
Kilmat from Amazon is a good price and one box covers alot.
Muncie brand pto as its blue 
Since the truck has load winches I am researching straps and the tying of them. I came across this video and I learned a lot! Did you all know this already?

@Cucv_M1008 thank you for the Killmat suggestion! That stuff was very satisfying to work with.
@tarussell the mat I ordered did not fit well as you warned but I was able to cut laterally and make it work - c+/b- fit and outcome.
Will take some pics in a few.

I think some of the wrinkles will smooth out after some time and hot days.
20+ years ago i had the same problem with a ACC mat kit . Looks like they still have not got the bugs worked out yet .
Looks like my floor mat lol
The Killmat was fun, rewarding. I wanted to throw shit before during and after on the rubber mat part 
I put the tunnel back on before I thought about taking pics of the th400 for identification purposes… 
Not an easy job now with the vinyl flooring, fok.

There’s not much to look at from the top, you can gather all the identifying info needed from the underside (pan shape, converter cover mounting flange, tag on the side).
OK. I just put a new converter cover on it as it was missing. This fit perfect, don't know if that helps.
Not trying to spoil your efforts at all but that picture is of a 2WD cover that offers no structural integrity and won’t allow for use of the two strut rods ( unless they were deleted when the conversion happened ).
Get us several ( in focus ) pics of the underside of the truck and most importantly the trans and T-case and we can confirm or direct on what ya’ actually got in there.
Pics are a pain as it is on the trailer as we are pointing North in the AM.
Using this page as reference:
I have small holes on top and bottom of the torque converter inspection plate mount, 4 total
I have the machined out tail housing like this
So it is likely I have the non-HD case.
Will confirm when I have time up at its new home. Thank you!!

There are HD cases out there that weren’t drilled for the thick cover, look for bosses visible on top of that flange. If you have the bosses the case can be drilled for the thick cover if you want one, it would be tricky to do in the truck.
The bosses are not there and the flange is thinner. While it looks like the 400 HD case was common in 85 the original tranny was a manual in this truck. Who knows where the 400 came from....
After a few days of cold starts with the carb I am thinking 8.1/4l80e
