According to Google Maps, the road trip from Gardiner (which was just outside Yellowstone National Park) to St Mary (which was just outside Glacier National Park) was 374 miles of Montana country road, that could be completed in less than 6 hours.

In this way we could fit some excursions in Two Medicine area of Glacier National Park on the second day, and take a detour along Lamar Valley and Beartooth Highway for the first day.
