Ohhhh can I relate to this. Only for me it was an A-type overdrive and a part that meant splitting the trans/OD case and fighting with the OD clutch springs once again. There should be a merit badge

I couldn't agree more. I "suffered" with the stock 4-speed until I got wise two years ago and added the O.D. It makes a big difference in engine noise at highway speeds and adds a couple of miles to
