Re: trans swap??

could get a 4 spd saginaw or munci. hurst makes a shifter for both of the transmission if you put them in a truck. got a 4 spd saginaw in mine with the hurst shifter in it and love it. chris.

Re: trans swap??

Search the forums for A833 and maybe MY6. Myself and others have posted about it. Gm had a 4 speed overdrive from about 81-86. I think they are great.
