I installed a 700R4 in a '72 SWB I had a bunch of years ago. It had 3.73 gears. I also installed cruise control from a '70s van in it. That truck was so nice to drive, especially on the freeway. The low first gear was fun around town. My current truck has 3.73 gears and a TH400. It is quite loud and unpleasant at speeds above 55mph. I'm planning on installing a 700R4 in it. For me, it's all about the driving experience.
