Appreciate the info y'all. Now my next question would be are there any newer 4 or 5-Speeds in the '70's, 80's or 90's that have OD that would work. The newer Small Block and Big Block Chevy V-8 should take the same Bell Housing as the older ones. Also wondering if there are any aluminum ones out there.
I've been trying to find the most simple and cost effecient way to put an overdrive in both my '72 1/2 ton 3-Speed and my '68 1-Ton 4-Speed.
So far (1) the 3-Speed OD only went to '69 and are just about impossible to find, (2) the Tremec Conversion is too non-original for me and way too expensive, (3) the S-10 Conversion is too weak, (4) an aftermarket OD is also way too expensive, (5) an Aux trans would take away my bench and I believe is a lot work and somewhat expensive (altho I would love 2 sticks),(6) a Camaro "World Class" trans is supposed to be stronger, but was told won't work right without a S-10 Tailshaft (This is my best choice yet tho, even tho I get conflicting info on it) and lastly is my new possible choice above.
If anyone knows of any other choices I may have missed just let me know.
Thanks
Bill
