I would be interestedin the 4 speed manual but I would like to know it came out of and also would it require me having a low hump or high hump would you know?
thanks for the quick replies guys

canadianchevy72 · 05-28-2004, 12:59 AM

came out of a 69 chevy c/20 high hump.

Slammed66 · 05-28-2004, 02:03 AM

I have a 4 speed as well requires high bump came outta my 67 when I put in the saginaw(car) tranny, Avoid the saginaw if you can , they wont take much power, im on my 2nd in 6 months!

My granny 4 speed is original and was bolted up to the original I6 250, I have the same tranny bolted up to a 1968 283 now, later Doug

If you switch from the 3 speed to the 4speed the hole in the bellhousing is smaller for the 3spd so you may need bellhousing as well.

If you need help ID'ing ratios, etc., go to www.dandltransmission.com

Saginaws came with several low-gear ratios. The 3.11 ones came in some 6-cylinder cars in the '60s, & in '73-'74 Vegas. 3.50's came in some of the late '70s Vegas & clones (Monza, etc.). My '72 Nova came with a 2.54, but I changed it to a 3.11 years ago. With the stock 10.4" clutch, I have had no problems with it, even with a 350 engine. I wouldn't subject one to abuse, because they're not real strong, but I'll probably put one in my truck in the near future, probably column-shifted with a separate lever for reverse.

I've got a 3 spd you can have. Just removed it last weekend and it worked well. Out of a 68 GMC. I6.

You pay shipping and it's yours.
