You won't have any trouble using that OD trans with a 327 in a 3/4 ton. I had a 66 C-20 with that combination that I drove for 17 years. I Hauled a camper and everything else. I installed a 350 in my 56 3100 10 years ago and it uses the same OD trans with virtually no problems. I recommend using the relay, govenor, & kick down switch as the factory designed it.
