Installed the overdrive transmission today
Well, I installed the Saginaw w/the Borg Warner overdrive today. It is a direct bolt in-no mods needed. I did change the 7 bolt side cover from my old Saginaw so I could use the backup light swich. I'm in the process of wiring the unit up. I installed the overdrive control cable, but realized it is too short, I bought it off ebay a few years back, so I suppose it will go back on ebay. I'll start looking for another one (unless CG wants to sell me the one out of his '69 - wink,wink). Here's a few pics. The first one is of the kickdown switch bracket that I had to fabricate for the 250.
BTW, That last pic is the Fel-Pro gasket kit for the Saginaw 3 spd. unit. It does not include the overdrive gaskets.
