Any big surprises when swapping in a 4-speed (no-granny, non-truck performance style) into a '66 w/ a present 352/3-on-the-tree?
The truck will lose all haulin' duties (I have an F-250 HD for that) & just be a cruiser of sorts.....
Thanks!

I wouldn't swap in a M5OD tranny in my worst enemy's truck...had my fill of those w/ two trucks. ZF is a nice truck trans, but not swapping in a 429/460 or small block now.
I was thinking toploader 4-speed (non-overdrive) as the truck will just be a cruiser from now on.....
I found the info needed yesterday on another site.
Thanks!

You guys want a manual tranny that has the best of all worlds??
Here it is:
an NV4500 manual 5 speed
1st is a granny low, like the NP435, and 5th is an overdrive. This can be bolted up to an FE with a bellhousing adapter.
