dunno how hard, but like the power box it's a saginaw, used by legions
of gm cars and light trucks up into the '90s at least.  parts and used
boxes are plentiful whereever you find gm.

btw i put a fast manual box [16:1, 3t] into my '68 american.  parking
is a bit tough if i can't roll the car, but i can one-hand it at any
normal road speed and i don't consider myself an athlete.

i like it a lot.  steering is now fast enough that i almost never have
to move my hands on the wheel.
