Gear Vendors should have told the builder in advance the ( how much )tunnel would need to be cut out and new sheet metal welded in place for overdrive shaft clearence. After all these years of installs Gear Vendors has that information. Mr. Jacket did a fantastic professional install that will last decades to come, well done sir.

Thanks for information. I'm wanting to purchase a gear vendor. I have th 350 street fighter with Ford 9" 411 gear in 71 camaro. 55-60 mph = 3000 rpm. I'm running 434 sbc with 630 hp .. I'd like to drive on highway but need another gear.

Yeah, looks like that driveshaft could’ve been a little bit longer more yolk into the vendors overdrive unit looks like only half of the yolk is in there that’s what I can see from the video

Nice job. Where and how do you add the fluid to the gear vendors unit?

There is a plug half way up on the back of the drive and we did it with a transfer pump.....Thanks for watching....

Will this unit be adapted to a 1973 C3 Corvette LS4 big block with a TH400 automatic transmission?
@Nova.19718 ай бұрын
You would have to call them but I know they make the adapter for the TH400. You have to ask what other modes you would need on the tunnel or mounts. Thanks for watching.

pity you need to mod the floor brace to install the unit. just find that an unecessary inconvenience. is it possible maybe alignment of tranny /engine could have avoided this scenario ?
@Nova.1971 Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately you have to modify most cars to fit this overdrive. Gear Vendors state that you may have to clearance the floor brace. The “C” channel is pretty thick all around and I should not harm the integrity of the floor. You would have to do the same to my Nova to make it fit. Thanks for your comment and watching.
