Thanks for the info I will try that tomarrow! I never knew that. Some guy told me the tranny was some like flat top Ford tranny or something similar to that. I have no clue but all I know is I think it's the original 3 speed from the 66. I didn't even know it could hold a 302. I plan to build this 302 up some and not sure how long this tranny will hold it. I really would like to have a automatic though but your right about the stick I guess.
Some people on another forum (forgot which one) told me that a C6 would probably be better under the 302. A few of them said they had C4's and they were nice but didn't hold up as long and as well as the C6.
If I ever get a tranny then it will be at the end of Fall.
