Finally decided to put a stick shift OD in my ‘67 Barracuda that’s a 383/727/4.11/3000# car that I use primary as a daily driver. Been kicking it around for a while & the cost just makes it un-appealing but I just went ahead & sold my ‘72 SWB to fund the swap.

Back around ‘01 I swapped a 833 for a Keisler TKO 500 5 speed in my ‘70 Barracuda & it worked out great but there are lots more choices these days & it was a stock 360. I really am shooting for a set-up to handle the drag strip & shooting for low 12’s/high 11’s.

I’m really wanting to run a mechanical clutch instead of hyd. for simplicity but the T56 Magnum is only available with the hyd. set-up.

What’s the experience you guys have had with banging gears in the newer transmissions vs the rebuilt A833.

Any advice/tips/stuff to watch out for?
