What trans should I run?

Make the switch! I LOVE the four-speed in my Dart. I think the price is high for the transmission. I know I'm gonna get blasted for this but I only paid $100 for an A833 last year at a swap, and it came with a bellhousing, shifter, & rods. YES I KNOW IT'S NOT THE NORM (before the forum police show up again:roll:).

$200 to Brewers for a rebuild kit for the transmission, which my husband did himself, a good quality clutch and pressure plate for around $450, misc. parts found at swap meets (Z-bar, reverse rod $25), transmission hump and shifter pedals found online ($100 total) and around $200 for a 360 flywheel, rebuild kit for the Z-bar, shifter boot for $65 etc etc it quickly adds up. It took me months to accumulate all the parts though. I wouldn't buy a part unless it was a good or decent deal, so it took a while.

I estimate around $1300 - $1,500 for the switch (haven't added it up yet), and I think we got off pretty cheap. Man, was it worth it though.
