I have an all original 79 slant 6 3 on the tree. Truck is a super stripper. Only option is power steering. It has a 3 SPD manual that is very high geared in 1st. Which trans would this be? Full synchro and is a top loader too.


If I hafta come in and getchya.......I'm gonna getchya!

Should be an a230. My 3 on the tree d100 was. I felt like I was burning out the clutch in first haha. I Swapped to an A833 and never looked back

2.99 ratio in first... Would have never guessed it seems so high geared. I've confirmed it an a390. Was that the only ratio available?
