A833 versions - how to pick?

Passon? I be damned. I'd walk first.
I've got a Passon 4 speed in my car. It's fine.

Can't speak for his 5 speed though.

OP, if it's aluminum case A Body 4 speed, you're sitting on gold. Odds are it's an Overdrive unit.

Otherwise, grab an iron case 4 speed and go. Unless you're drag racing, you won't see enough benefit in hunting down a specific unit, based on your intended application. They'll all do the job and all hold up fine.
