Change from 4-speed to 3w/OD

So, like I said above, a T56 is a 4 speed with dual overdrive then?

No, it's a 6 speed.

And actually, in the 833OD the gear that's the OD gear is actually 3rd gear in the box. It's 4th that's still 1:1. That's why the shift lever is flipped on the 833OD boxes.
Again, you are technically correct. But a T56 won't grenade itself at WOT in 6th gear.
