I have got two of these NV833 or A833's . Both of mine came as factory equipment in 1982 GMC half tons with 6.2 Diesel. Both trannys have an aluminum bell housing with cast iron tranny bodies and non hydraulic clutch.
They shift well, and I like the tall overdrive on the highway. At 65 MPH on a summer day the 6.2 / A833 in a two wheel drive pickup I have made 33 MPG (Imperial gallon) Im in Canada. If your looking for one of these transmissions, try checking bone yards for early 6.2's
