I have a T170 that I want to use but the overdrive is 41%. I have been trying to find a 26% cluster gear and overdrive gear for some time now with no success. Do any of you know where I might find these parts?

I was at a car show this past weekend in Altoona. I met two fellows that had early 50's pu's side by side - both flatheads. One had the mid 80's 3sd w/OD and the other had the T-5 5sp. Both agreed that the 5 sp was a better choice because of the gearing. 1st a little low but nice between 2, 3 & 4 on the T-5. They said the 3sp OD had a wide gap between 2nd & 3rd. These were multiple owners and drivers. One fellow had the pu w/3sp OD and a 53 Ford with the T-5. Again he said he like the T-5 better. They also recommended the Cornhuskers kit w/hyd slave cyl. I'm always trying to learn from those who have already gone thru the process. What do you think?

IMO, the 5 spd is a harder install. The RTS 3 spd w/OD has essentially the same gearing as the Model 3 spd in gears 1 thru 3. What you gain is the OD. Also, the RTS install doesn't modify the car as much as the T5.

I think the Mitchell Over drive will be my choice. Six speeds forward and about the same amount of money.

I thought some people had trouble with Dave. They could not get their stuff and he was in rehab. This could be something else or a different person but I thought it was over drive transmissions.

I was doing my homework. I am glad you are up and running. I just asked a question and now I know. Sorry that I upset you.

I just can't let go --- of the transmission I got from Dave. I think it's great, and I love it. The machine work Dave does is top shelf, as is his customer service. Dave doesn't just sell parts, he sells a complete working system, and is there to make sure it works as advertised. I would buy another one from him in a New York Minute, I just don't have another car to put it in right now.

Even without the Overdrive, the syncromesh is worth the effort! I just LOVE mine!
