Years ago, a buddy put one in his hemi 4spd Bird, along with 8 3/4 rear end . . . he drove it that way for YEARS !!! Yes, he kept the original parts, but wanted to drive his car, all over !! Was cool to see real hemi 4spd Bird out on the highways !! . . . I had a 76 Road Runner, original non touched car, 57k miles on it when I got it. 318 with 4spd OD . . . had Passon rebuild the tranny, mainly for the leaking seals, but hey, might as well get it totally looked after. It was cast case, but drove that car all over, and put 21k miles on it ! Ran great, 23mpg all day long at 70mph ! . . . totally cool RR with the superpak option (all the spoilers, window louvers and stripes) . . .
