Re: Overdrive transmission for our big blocks

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

That price will drop quit a bit if you install it on a small block B body
because the A-518 only fits a small block application.  The expense is in
the machining of the A-518 case and a donor big block 727 to adapt the 518
to fit a big block B body.  Hope this is clear & helps.

You don't need a parachute to skydive. You only need one to skydive twice.

seems pretty pricey, I purchased an A-518 from a local yard for $350 and
went through it for about $150, I think the guy who bought it told me
purchased an adapter from JW's in Florida, seems to me the whole deal could
be done for a bunch less, maybe Don Dulmage will weigh in here, he might
have done this already. The A-518 is nothing more than a 727 whereas an A-
500 is pretty much a 904,  pretty straight forward to rebuild with the
exception of the overdrive and if it isn't broke then don't fix it.
