...RE core, you just need to add kickdown linkage. Holley management will control an RE trans. I worked with the Holley fuel injection engineer to provide input on how the RE transmission worked for 4th gear and overdrive, while they were developing the software to control the Chrysler RE trans.

I’ve always wanted to attend and race but the 2100 mile trip to get there is a bit prohibitive. If I tow my heater there, I’ll be looking at approximately $2500 in round trip fuel costs. That overdrive in the heater is looking pretty good right about now…..

thank you so much for your time and expertise on the matter. i was weighing the difference between beefing the smaller trans vs just running the bigger unit with good parts/more clutches, etx. and it sounds like kind of a wash and either would do for the power level i'd wind up with.

Slant 6 4 speed bell housing, non-overdrive, cast iron. Going into a '66 Dart.

I get the best mileage at or below 2000 rom with my stock 318. But 61 mph? Ya I need a overdrive and a 355 or so.

...which trans you decide to go with, you will need to at a minimum need to cut the floor/trans tunnel to install a four speed or the Passon overdrive- there are reproductions of the factory four speed "humps" that then get welded in place. Brewer's, AMD and others carry them. The rest- pedals...

...on doing this throughout the web. The choices I am considering are, -Tremec 5 speed -Tremec 5 speed with hydraulic upgrade -Passon hemi overdrive -Brewers 4 speed conversion (believe they're out of stock) I have a quote from Silver Sport for the Tremec but the rep said that it does not come...

This is the pivot ball I was told that needed to be welded in. I think I am going to go with the four speed conversion and also look into modifying my auto. Thanks

He's talking Road Course "track" car, so the trans is what I'd use, but the engine plan is flawed.

When your GV is as high as possible, it seems to me that you want just a bit less than the same opposite at the differential. Lets say you have 4.5 down on the GV, then you want 2-3 degrees up at the diff. Then when under load the diff comes up a little more making the angles about perfect for...

Looking for recommendations on a OD transmission for my 67 Barracuda that has a 360 in it currently, but plan to turn it into a 408. The transmission in there now is a 727.

...a 69 Formula S 340 and when Fernald did it he painted it orange, we did the S&M scheme. I drove the crap out of it, the Gear Vendors overdrive made the car totally driveable and the Vintage Air made it tolerable in the Scottsdale, AZ heat. Looks like yours is closer to the original scheme, cool!

...capacity to dissipate heat but would be grateful if anyone has any info. I'm a bit puzzled by the seeming need to shift more heat. The overdrive unit with lockup should improve miles to the gallon by about 25% and this suggests my 42RH shouldn't need as big a cooler as the 727. Should I...

...both a sweet driver and great handling setup. You said you're unsure of the drivetrain right now. If it was me, I'd go with a 360/200-4R overdrive combo. This is what I'm putting in my '69 Dart. The 200-4R fits in the unmodified A-body tunnel and has a 0.67 OD. Good luck with your build...

I have run the passon 18 spline hemi overdrive gears in my a833 for a bunch of years. No complaints 28" tire and 4.30 gears. Cruises awesome. I just finished my install of a t56 into the same car but now with a big block. I have not run the car much due to other issues. I swapped in a dana...

Youre kidding right....40 mpg ? Was it a dog or had respectable response?

...bigger than a 273. Ok wait; I tuned one of those buggers lean and it made 40mpg Canadian on my near 200psi 367 , cruising 75= 1850 rpm, in overdrive, so there's that. But it sucked in standard tune on same engine. If I had to, I guess I'd install the 600 on the barge. But honestly, a 600...

Two wheel drive overdrive transmission. Was behind a 5.9 Magnum in a B van with 49k miles on the clock. $250 pick up only. Will not ship

Start a parts wanted thread. There are manifolds for sale here on the site regularly.

If you're changing transmissions I'd recommend something with an overdrive. We're putting a similar engine in a Camaro this winter and my buddy is going with a 700R4. It's an easy swap and is going to allow him to use a little more gear for around town fun and still be able to take it out on the...

Damn Whipper Snappers.. Time to go drink some Whipple!!!! BTW.. I ordered some 3.27s. If I have to change again when (if) I do an overdrive.. It is what it is.

...same process as a two-door? I have a 74 Valiant with a 408 Stroker motor that I'd like to put a four-speed behind. From what I've read, non overdrive would be what I want with the iron case. Any specific years or part numbers to look for? I saw there was a couple different bellhousings but...

Great post AJ! Your speaking from exacting experience and your how’s and why’s with everything tested. This is a bullseye on that subject on your engine and car. Spot on. Now comes the trouble on someone else’s car, drivetrain and engine. It’s a deep and wide subject equal to the Pacific...

you're 16, you can live with a lot of nonsense. i know that most all of us did when we were in our teens and 20's driving cars without AC, cruise, power anything, radios, carpet, headliner, springs in the seat pokin' us in the ***. i'm old and washed now. i need at the bare minimum AC. but...

the gear vendors is a Laycock de Normanville overdrive, a constant on british cars of 50s -70s taxis luxury cars and small trucks. which used a long obsolete double latching relay and a bunch of switches on the gear linkage, made by lucas to switch it out when you were doing something...

Do you really have a 57 Fargo pickup?

I think I may have one I'll check tomorrow

...one I bought for sale, I was looking at a 500 mile radius and found a few B and E body transmissions. When an A body one came up, it was an overdrive unit that looked like it had been under water the last 20 years. People on eBay are really really proud of their stuff to lol Keep looking...

I ran 4.88s one summer, but with double overdrive those were like 2.70s...... lol

...has been in storage, Mopar Performance and a bunch of companies supplied parts!Mopar Performance donated there new hemi crate motor and overdrive transmission, it was built to promote there 5.7 liter engine swap and put in hotrod magazine, so I took a chance and bought this car the lady I...
