I'm sure I have a 3 speed Saginaw, how many versions are there? Casting numberson the case are GM 25. 3925647 the 3 may be an 8 or something.
The linkage cover is GM23. 3952645 Tail is GM14. 3873888 Any insight to this assembly? Gear ratios? Age of it? Not able to upload pics just yet, will add them for clarification shortly.

Re: 3OTT trans identifying
I believe the date code shows January 21, 1971. Could possibly be 1981 if it's from a later truck. There are three common versions that I'm aware of:
2:54 1st 2:85 1st (most common in '67-'72s) 3:11 1st The easiest thing to do to identify the transmission specifically is to take 15 minutes and just pull it out. Count the number of rings on the input shaft if there are any and that will ID it or just put it in first gear on the bench and count the number of turns of the input shaft to one turn of the output shaft. |

Re: 3OTT trans identifying
i'm told there is also a 3.50 1st Version but I've never actually seen one. To ID the transmission by the number of rings on the input shaft :
2.54 = 1 ring 2.85 = no rings 3.11 = 2 rings 3.50 = 3 rings Steve weim55 Colorado |
