I just want to know why Chrysler made theirs out of cast iron instead of aluminum like GM. Ma did make 'em in all-aluminum versions for A- and F-bodies. I thought only the Muncie M-22(?) trans was all aluminum. The 4-speed in my Dad's '68 was definitely all cast-iron.

So all of them dont scatter all over the street like a GM trans. I dont mind the cast iron, less case flex. I dont use a jack when I put my 833s in. I roll it onto my chest and bench press it in 1969 Nova 454/M21/3.31 Mild mid-11 second weekend cruiser 1994 F150 XLT Super Cab 2WD 5.0/4R70W/3.55 (Daily driver)
