Slant six to five or six speed trans.
IIRC,
somebody did an AX15
the ratios are;
3.83-2.33-1.44-1.00-.79od; the splits are what's good about it;
.61-.62-.69-.79 fairly close and getting progressively tighter, in each gear..
In an early A-body, with 24.5" tires, the /225 should be able to pull 65=2200, so the rear gear could be as low as 2.94s, for 65=2068
That would give you a starter gear of 3.83 x 2.94= 11.26, which with those small tires equates to 500rpm=3.24mph. Daymn that's nice; almost makes me want to detune my 367 to 150hp, lol, to not bust that AX15
With 2.94s your Roadgears would be;
11.26-6.85-4.23-2.94-2.32 compared to mine;
10.97-6.82-4.97-3.55-2.77 which I really like behind my 367.
Jus trynta be helpfull.
To fit the clutch, the input might be a lil short. I wouldn't let that stop me, I'd just splice a Mopar input to the Jeep/Chevy, at the right distance, then neck it down to fit the AX retainer,
and somebody else did a ChevyS10 trans, a T5. This unit has no BH on it so adapting it to a slanty/overdrive BH should be easier.
The Ratios are;
4.01-2.33-1.39-1.00- .78od with splits of
.58-.60-.72-.78 and with 2.76s this time, the roadgears are
11.07-6.43-3.84-2.76-2.15, and 65=1919rpm
