65′ Dart straight axle info

Hi guys. I didn't want to hijack anyones thread ; so I thought I'd start a new one. I have a 65' Dart and am considering going with a straight axle. The thing is that I don't want to go with an altered wheelbase. What I'm wondering is; does the straight axle have to be brought forward for clearance purpouses? Or can it be mounted in the "stock" wheelbase location? I'm also wondering about the pics of the "Charlie Allen" 66' Dart. It is evident that the straight axle has been brough forward (thus the wheelwells have been trimmed); but the rear axle "looks" like it is in the stock location. Does anyone know for sure?
