IF you have a OD transmission, it's not a factory transmission. Chevrolet never put a OD trans in a 1957 big truck (only the 3100 & 3200 had a optional OD transmission). The 6000 Series Trucks were standard with the SM-420 4-speed with an optional New Process 5-speed (direct drive). This 5-speed has a shifting pattern that looks like this;

1...2...4...R
....3...5
