    A/B Body 4 speed inside differences?

    I seem to remember that the gear ratios were different between the various body styles, probably based on weight/power ratio. Just checked my 1968 factory service manual... Gear ratios for 833... 1st...2.66 2nd...1.91 3rd...1.39 4th...1.00 Reverse...2.58 There is no mention of...

    current price on an A body 440 , 4 speed ?

    Thanks for that info, Pat. I was unaware of the gear cuts. I did remember that the gear ratios were different, however. Did you have any racing experience with those Super Stock Hurst cars back in the day? If so, maybe you could write a bit about them up in the General MoPar thread. I...

    Odd question: Shift knob

    When I worked at Grumman years ago, the Model Shop made the actual Top Gun awards for the F-14 pilots. They were brass casted replicas of actual F-14 joy stick grips, buttons and all. I thought at the time that they might make unique shifter handles, except they were heavy as hell. A real one...

    Odd question: Shift knob

    I think the old hot rod 8-ball is unusual these days. At least I haven't seen one in a long time.

    Pistol grip shifter

    Thanks for the info, Mullinax. If Chrysler had offered that set-up from the factory, it would have looked no better than your installation! It is a natural!:cheers: Thank you.

    Pistol grip shifter

    If you could do so, would you mind taking some shots of you with the shifter at each gear position? I am trying to decide whether to use an E-body 833 trans and pistol grip in my '68 'Cuda. I need to determine whether I could do the shifter plate conversion or try to locate an A-body 833. I...

    Pistol grip shifter

    I have an 833 from a '72 'Cuda, which I am contemplating putting into an auto trans '68 'Cuda. I noticed the shifter relocation plate that someone posted in another thread (to put an E-body 833 into an A-body). Are you using an A-body or E-body 833? When you are seated, where is your hand on...

    Trans/engine removal procedure - HOW?

    I saw version #1 done in a Mopar mag a few years ago and they swore by that method. They said it was the way the unit was installed at the factory, so it made sense to me. I will be doing the same when I change from a 318 to a 440 in my '68 'Cuda because I will be putting discs on and changing...

    b body tranny in a a body?

    Question: When putting a B/E-body 833 into an A-body, does the longer length trans tail housing affect the drive shaft angle in a bad way? I have an 833 from an E-body that I would like to use connected to an 8.75 rear in my '68 Cuda. I was considering a TREMEC, but the cost will set me back...
