After market OD?

[Elmo65]

Do any of ya’ll have one? Is it worth the effort and cost? Not in race cars. Just drivers for every day commutes.

 

[abodyjoe]

which kind of od?

is it worth it is kinda a hard question to answer.

what gear is in your car now? take a ton of gas topayfor an od unit. but lower more comfortable rpm on the highway can be much more comfortable too..

Gear venders vs 5 or 6 speed manual. Or an automatic with overdrive.

I have an A903 and no intention of changing it at the moment. I just would like a little feed back from people who have gone that route. And those who decided not to.

Put a 42RH or 46RH in it and dont look back.

Manual is more fun no matter what... but i would do a 46rh in a heartbeat if i weren't lazy and cheap

I have a gear vendors unit and I really like it. It’s behind a slightly built 273 with a 904 and 8 1/4 with 373 gears. It definitely makes long drives more pleasant. At 65 mph runs about 1800 rpms.

Can somebody explain to me what those are? Yeah, I’m ignorant.

They are factory OD trans.. the RH is a hydraulic OD.. the RE is electronicly controlled.. they basically bolt right in a small block car but the tunnel will need to be "Massaged"

 

[Elmo65]

Sort of like gear vendors, right?
