It will run but not smooth yet. Was just wondering how common the overdrive is in trucks mainly. Thanks for any and all comments.

I love the 5 window jobbers and look forward to seeing your pics. Sorry I can't help with the overdrive question but there are a lot of folks who can. I'd post your question in a forum better suited to get a result. This is like the greeting area. So glad you joined!  Jerry | | |
