Re: Gifted a 68 c20- what to do

Welcome aboard. Looking forward to some photos of your gift. In the mean time here is a link to let you compare transmissions.

Lots of options for you. In my mind the gearvendors vs other factory automatic overdrive trannys comes down to two differences. The factory ones get you a lockup converter which gets a mpg payback over the long run. The gearvendors gets you a more rugged transmission package. Now there are some very strong opinions about newer 6l80e and other such transmissions but the cost of them to me is too much and I would never see a payback for that type of conversion. So towing or cruising/daily driver is the decision. Just my opinion so your results may vary.
