Re: [AMC-list] time to find a stout 5 spd

[Jim Blair <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am planning to run an AX-15 behind the 290 I'm putting into my '82 Honcho, but that may not be enough for a 401. NV6550 maybe? It's a little more car-like shifting.

casper aint about to be a race car. i would DIE if i was to wad that thing up
in the wall. and i have the biggest tire i can fit under it right now.
245/45/17. i got 1" of clearance on the inside, and about 3/4" outside. i
just want somethin that would be fun and cool to run around in and would KEEP
UP with the other hotrods when i go on cruises with them. we got nothin but
mountains here, and they always leave me goin up hill, and i gotta play like
(i think its skynard) "now im freeeee.... free fallin" when i go down the
hills so i can get a run for the next. lol. about the hardest work the tranny
would get would be pulling my little 1200lb scamp camp trailer. anyone have
any idea of another 5spd that would work behind a 401 that has o/d? the frod
9" i have that measures only about 1/2" wider is spooled, and has 3.89 gears
in it right now. it is set up with coil springs and triangular 4link.
