Now that we are on the subject of mid 60's transes... I have a few questions for all of us to piece together....


A) 64 used pushbutton and cable controlled transmissions...

B) 65 used special floor shifter and cable controlled transmissions...

C) 66 was the first year for linkage controlled shift on transmissions...


1) So are the4 cables and internals for the cable actuation in the transmissions interchangeable on 64 and 65 transmissions???

2) Are the 66 transmissions unique from 64 & 65 transmissions because they were no longer cable control, but shifter actuated???

3) Would the rooster comb be different for the 66 trans than from the 64 - 65 transmissions....


4) What year did they change over from the single wire NSS and go with the 3 wire NSS????

5) 66 transes have a different spline count than 64- & 65...

Also need to add the shift from a dual (front and rear) pump system that occurred in 65(??)

The hydraulics flows changed as well because as it seems to me, the use of the.park cable was a mechanical block to the transmission's ability to engage the drive bands and was not related to the flow in Neutral.

The addition of a true "Park" position in 65 created a change in hydraulic flow that differs from the neutral position.

That's a novice's assessment at least
