    Also true. Two different shaft lengths, and three different shifter pad locations as mentioned.

    But the A833OD units were used all the way up to '87 in light trucks. The truck transmissions are long housing, with B and E mounting pads. The trucks used the "B" shifter location, but they still have the "E" pads cast into the housing. Although you'll have to drill and tap most of them for threads if you want to use it.
     
  2. originally used in the 300-F, approximately 8 units built, the pont-a-mousson 4 speed

    Gee, learned something new! I never knew that the 1st 426 hemi's had French 4-speeds behind them.

    Thanks for the info..

  6. Keep in mind any 833 trans is very good ,the Hemi is a 18 spline that came behind a lot of 440 cars.
    The 18 spline clutch set up can cost you a little more.

    The 23 spline is all most as good and came behind smaller engines from mopar.
    you will have good luck with eather.

    Very good advice you are recieving here. Personally, the 833 18 spline is a one time purchase you will never regret, and not likely ever part with they are that good. Put it this way, I put one in an old drag car we had, and forgot about it for years, literally. Blew rears, engines, you name it, that ****** was just a given. They are fantastic.

    ...the '64 parts manual does not show this....
     
  9. I had a 70 GTX with a built 440 Dana 60 & a 4 speed. I put that car thru hell.

    I don't know how many times I'd bring the revs up to 5 grand & drop the clutch. The trans never broke. In fact nothing ever broke. I owner the car 4 yrs, sold it to a guy in Reno. He tore it down & did a refresh on the drivetrain.

    I also owner a 69 Mach 1 Mustang Super CJ. I went thru 2 top loaders. That might tell you something.

    I run a Super T10 (T10X) in a vintage road race car. It's a cast iron case, aluminum tailcase, improved midplate, oil grooved first gear bushing, a 2:64 first gear, tall, colse ratio second and third. Excellent, bulletproof ******. The short first makes it easy to handle in the pits with a triple disc clutch and light flywheel and first is never used on the track anyway. I've run it 11 years in a 2,200 Lb, 482 HP fuelie car. No problems. I've always heard the Mopar boxes are bullet proof, but would say the T10X is might tough too.
