I just mentioned how a close-ratio trans can be used with an overdrive bellhousing. @halfafish is the seller. He'll get a notification on this and I'm sure get your pictures.

I luv it. I have everything it needs except an interior. I have an HO367engine, a modified 4-speed trans, an overdrive, a narrowed 8.75, Disc brakes, HD suspension, dual exhaust, and a brand new set of 295s on 10s to match those wheels currently on it. If money was easy for me, I'd already be...

I was going to do an overdrive swap but decided to leave the 727 in the car. I bought this several months ago and it is supposed to be a good working transmission. The previous owner was using it in the place of a 46RE and swapped it out with the correct transmission for his truck. It originally...

Went ahead and grabbed a set of 3.23s.. I think I can deal with them. Previously I was running right around 2600 @ 70 with 2.7s and a 26" tall tire (lockup wasn't working right) and it didn't bother me. Now the trans is built up a bit and the lockup should be golden. So I should be in the same...

...42rh 46rh valve body. New or used. Called around and everybody is giving me a 6 month plus turn around time. Too long for when I need this car done. Will take forward or reverse pattern. Must have the lockup and overdrive capabilities!! Need shipped to pittsburgh pa area. Paypal or venmo...

Read here….. 4speed overdrive linkage set up correct? Disregard post 2 in this link.

I also noticed the same on the handle knob.. at least the number on the linkage rod case can be seen. Looks like a C95664 which is a 64-70 side cover at least. I’ll have more info tomorrow. Could have just had the shifter swapped for that application. Uploading photos kinda dumbs down the...

Just a reminder, this bellhousing is for the 833 Overdrive trans. The register hole is about 5.119" across so if you want to put in a regular 3-speed or 4-speed you'd need to make a reducing ring for it to fit right.

Attached is a picture of a 727 we built last weekend with a gear vendors overdrive unit. It is going in a 1970 Challenger (beautiful car) behind a W9 small block. Pure street car but should make a lot of power. The 727 has a good bit of upgrades. All the parts were supplied by A&A...

Best of both worlds.

...actually a great idea. The factory gear ratios in the A250/A903 are; 3.18/3.22/2.95 First/1.83 Second/and of course 1.00 Third. and in the overdrive are; 3.09-1.67-1.00-.73 But whereas 3.23s are singing 65= 2775 with 25.5" tires; the overdrive knocks that down to 65=2026. However; notice...

...of the converter currently fitted to my 42RH is 2300. The car is geared for 130MPH at 5000 RPM, so 26MPH per 1000, 2000RPM at 52MPH. If overdrive comes in at 55MPH and lockup around 65MPH, then driving on main roads at 60MPH in overdrive it will be ticking over at 5000/130 x 60 = 2300...

Yeah, I've never done that one again!!! I'm running 4:11's and mostly drive around town, or runs on back country roads, only use the overdrive when on road trips on the highways. But what a blessing that is when I'm on the Interstate, to be able to drop the revs to 2700-2800 or so! (Maybe it...

Right?! If you can overdrive your front tires, you need more front tire. The goal should be that the front tires can take everything you can give them and more, you’ll get a lot more performance like that. Regardless, they don’t make anything in a DOT legal 235/60/14 that’s even half the...

When I read your replies, it seems like you only beat the living shot out of your cars with wide open throttle hammerings. Then you assume everyone else has no control over there right foot. Why do you want to “Overdrive” your front tires and front end?

...bored 40K with 10.5:1 Egge pistons and Edelbrock 4V intake with AVS-2 carburetor and wagner PCV. 3:73 shur-grip rear 8 1/4 with Gearvendors overdrive. Stock exhaust manifolds with dual exhaust and wide band O2 gauge. Most of the details are in my build thread. Tinted glass with SS glass trim...

...stall converter in front of the 904 trans that seems to slip quite a bit as the car currently has 2.94 gears and 27" rear tires. With an overdrive manual trans that could keep it spinning in the lower-2000s RPM range and no slippage from a torque converter I think it would break into the low...

There are are still details I am sorting out but I wanted the overdrive as well. Quick searches for replacement trans mounts did not make it totally clear if my old trans crossmember would work with an overdrive, but I now think it will. The older ones are clearly not going to work because they...

99% sure it is an overdrive. What is the casting number on the retainer... C13157 or C97728?

Very happy for you, my friend! The 104 mph says "yes", 12's is there.

Excited I’d be for sure! The time comparison is big. What do you have for rockers and the converter stall?

...for things. It gives some hope for the ones that think everything is out of their reach. I paid 500 bucks for a nice 5.9 delivered to my house, and 125 for a guaranteed 42RH overdrive with the converter and 7290 driveshaft yoke. Just the yoke can cost more than 125 if you shop the wrong places.

...advice, let alone touch your car. lol There are some places that sells a solenoid for the lock-up portion of the transmission. A500 Lock-Up Overdrive Solenoid Also, If I'm not mistaken I think it was @Abodybomber who rigged up a dual toggle switch for his auto 4 speed conversion 1 for OD and...

Yes to all. I did disassemble the valve body. I replaced all the seals and rings Also checked clearances.I’ve taken valve body out again. I also took the overdrive off. Going to check these things again.

...shims to bring the pinion down 2-3 degrees under no load is what I shoot for, right? When the pinion comes up under a load it gets it as close to zero as possible. Right now, with the shims added, my pinion angle is down 2.6 degrees lower than the output shaft on the overdrive unit under no...

Does this use the lock up converter? Does it have OverDrive?

I'm prepping an A-518 for use in a non-factory equipped older car, and I'm adding the switches to automate the lockup and overdrive functions. What vacuum switch do I use, and where is a good place to get them? Thanks all JOS

...hangers upside down to lower the rearend a bit. It was sitting pretty high with the ESPO +1 inch leaf springs. Then I measured for the new short driveshaft need for the Gear vendors Overdrive I just installed. Getting close for a test drive! Hoping the driveshaft shop can get to it in short...

...rearend a bit. It was sitting pretty high with the ESPO +1 inch leaf springs. Then I measured for the new shorter driveshaft needed for the Overdrive. I measured it at 31 1/2 inches from center to center of the u-joints. I'll drop the driveshaft off for shortening on Monday. Getting close for...
