Has anyone purchased and installed one of these OD kits in the transmission?
Opinions?
I doubt I can ever afford the new 5-speed they are coming out with but noticed a price drop on the kits. I would love to drop some RPMs in fourth gear on the freeway .

I don't have a 4 speed car at this time so I am not in the market for one, but I can say that Jamie Passon is a class act. I have done several transactions with him over the years. I have looked that the overdrive tranny several times, and it looks like a real nice piece.

Just recently installed one in my 68rt a month or so ago I had Brewer's Performance do my trans; I know we discovered that passon has a bad run of 18 spline shafts at the moment; If u go that route make sure they test your new clutch disc on the spline will save u a lot head scratching; Ron

Yes I'm good with mine there's a lot of little trick's to setting this tranny up; tested my faith a time or 4; There's No Installation or set-up Instruction's; but if you go this route Make Sure You Order a Complete Kit including Clutch and Pressure Plate from passon or Brewer's Performance the guy's at brewer's were very helpful Jamie P is a ***hole; I'd be glad to answer any ?'s you have; P message me I'll give U my cell #
