I'm at a cross road! I had full intensions of keeping my car outfited with a manual trans, but now that I'm in to it I just don't know. The car is factory with a 3 speed manual trans, and a 318. I now have my 440 near completion, and have to look forward to the next step of car tottal completion. I concidered using an A833 4 speed OD trans that I got at a very good price, but now have hesitations of using it because my engine build has ended up going alot further in HP than I originaly planed "go figure". Now I have to come up with an older Non - overdrive 4 speed and bellhousing, or just forget the whole idea and go with "what I think is" the easier / less expensive route and just stick an automatic in the thing and forget about it. Now with that said, I think the items needed will be the flex plate, torque convertor, trans, drive shaft yoke, Aftermarket floor shifter, and automatic trans rear mount cross member. I am also interested in seeing if anyone is interested in the manual 3 speed and A833 4 speed od trans, flywheel and hurst shifter on the 4 speed in trade or partial trade for the items I need to go automatic.
I built a 727 w/reverse shift cheeta manual valve body for my 69 RR years ago and enjoyed it. I would probably want to do something similar for my new ride as well.
Any thoughts / opinions on this?
Thanks
