 A guy has a Borg Warner 35 auto tranny he wants to sell. He said he would let 
it go cheap.  What would be considered cheap? It was in good shape and 
functioning when it came out of the car.  This guy is a club member and friend, 
I think he just wants it out of the way.
It came out of his Jag, which he converted to a four speed.
THANKS!

bob,

if it is any consolation you have 3 choices with this trans;

1) the gear set in the c o/d trans is different than all others , the number 
should be on the lay gear 22b 565... if so many b racers use that entire gear 
set for better performance, a better advantage on the track with no visible 
mods,  and is worth about 450-500 by itself. it is a closer ratio than a 
standard b.( you must use the entire internal gear set - do not mix and 
match-it is a set)

2) you also have the o/d (presumably rebuilt) with with all the proper pieces 
to make your non o/d b  trans
an o/d  trans. your tranny guy should be able do it for you...they are the 
same unit as the b - no difference,( just the rear flange )

by doing one and two you would have achieved a more high performance unit and 
would be faster tnan other b's  in the same category.

3) sell it and start over

either way good luck,
-- by the way i have a "C"  o/d trans that has the proper gear set not 
rebuilt for $450 if you sell that one and still want the gear set ( plus many 
c parts if you want to sell your "B" and buy a 145 bhp "C" )
