I have a 3 speed Saginaw Transmission with a Borg-Warner OD tail=0A=
section. Xmission # is 3858986 and=0A=
overdrive is R10Q-1. Date codes appear=0A=
to be late 66 =96 early 67. I=92d like to=0A=
adapt it to my 1957 Chev pickup with original 235 engine=2C column 3 speed.=
Internet sources identify this transmission=0A=
combo as having been used in 66 =96 69 Chevrolet and Chevelle cars. The Sa=
ginaw (front) portion is much longer=0A=
than on the 1957 but overall length looks the same. The input looks the sa=
me as the 1957 but the=0A=
lower mounting holes are clear=2C not threaded. =0A=
The output shaft is a finer spline: =0A=
27 versus the 16 spline 1957 output. =0A=
The rear OD housing section is larger in=0A=
diameter than the 1957 tailshaft housing but I believe there is plenty of s=
pace=0A=
underneath the floorboard. The shifter=0A=
shaft locations look close to the 1957 3 speed. =0A=
