A body with an A833 and a Gear Vendor installed

Ask me anything about installing or running the GVod.
I installed mine in 2004.
I would NOT say that is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but with a cammed-up SBM, it's close.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Since I am a streeter, if I had to do it again;
I would just put a smaller cam in my 360, for a broader torque curve, and run the Mopar 3+1, with 3.23s. Then I would install a clutch with a decent slip from idle to ~2800, and flyweight/roller lock-up after that.
I'd have just as much fun without the preponderance of wheelspin.
Of course you know what that means? .......... wait for it .............. Thermoquad!
After all these years of running my 360, on the street, I have learned that anything over 350 hp, is, for the most part, overkill and/or for bragging rights.
Knowing what I now know,
I could be very happy with;
a detuned for torque340, and the A833od. or
A hi-compression 318 with a 5-speed like the AX15.
My dream would be a close ratio 4-speed automatic with a clutch pedal, and a deep overdrive, or a 5-speed auto with loc-up, and with a fake clutch pedal, lol..But really, I could br happy with two gears, then a deep oveedrive and a loc-up. Those other gears, for me, are just a way of going from 65@7000 in second, to 2200 in overdrive.
This is why, I could be happy with the 3+1 Mopar. It goes from Second to overdrive with a ratio of .44, yeah, imagine that.
3.09-1.67-1.00-.73. splits of .54-.60-.73; nice progressive ratios right? except you gotta granny shift into overdrive, else it blows up. Which wouldn't be the end of the world, if you could miraculously keep the flying bits out of the other gears. Which is why I glued magnets inside the case, all around that gear, in the Second box I built. It worked too, I drove it all the way home as a 3-speed.
But to continue; .73/1.67 skipping third is .437... and with 3.55s, Second Gear at 5000=68mph, and 5000 x .437= 2185rpm; let the clutch out gently.......... don't let the factory flywheel destroy that teeny tinny gear.

But I can talk A833/GVod all day.
