JiMerit is correct. A Saginaw 4 speed is a pain to install in any Chevrolet pickup from 1936 to 1947 (1st Series). Reason? The brake master cylinder is directly in the way. If you want to move the master cylinder, which is a big job, then you can pull it off. Be prepred to cut out your seat for the shifter to clear.
The best choice is the T-5 five speed transmission form a mid 80's S-10 pickup or Blazer. By comparison, it is a snap! The good thing about the T-5 is you will have all you have with a Saginaw 4 speed and MORE!!
Do a search here on this site for all kinds of information on the T-5 installation and call Steve at Buffalo Enterprises.
