I bought a used '67 step 327 3 on the tree in 1970. I could only live with it for a month until switching for a muncie 4 speed and Hurst shifter. Completely transformed the driving experience. No comparison.
Now almost 50 years later I picked up another '67 step with a T400 auto trans, and only I lasted only a few months before jerking it out and dropping in a T56 magnum 6 speed. The truck is so much more fun to drive now. No more slow lane on the freeway, and it takes me back to the feeling of taking my old truck though the gears with 4 close ratios. The engine is always in the power band. I learned to drive in a 55 Chevy 6 cylinder 3 on the tree and can remember the feeling, sound and smell on that day. It brings back smile to this day.
