Hi, i have a 69 c10 longbed, recently my transmission, 3 spd, has been giving me fits, considering replacing it, is there a 4-5 spd available that will bolt right into my truck without modifications? Its all original, straight 6, been converted to a floor shifter. Basically if there is, i would like to know what type transmissions i should be looking for, having a time finding any tech specs on my truck. Any help will be appreciated.  

Does anyone have any tips for Ogerking?  

Thanks Mpayne for a responce, fortunatly i found out by myself that i can use a Muncie M20, now i just have to get my hands on one. Again fortunatly i can get one at Autozone, suprised the crap out of me, just need time to get down there and order one.  

In 63 chev came out with the 250 6 cyclinder witch has the same bolt patern as the V8 so any trans should fit.( croect me if I am wrong ) So with the price of gas I think you should go with a 5 speed like out of a S10.  

Thats good to know, hope the back order wont take to long.  

The problem isn't bellhousing pattern.  The problem is the mounts on the bellhousing.  A Saginaw 3 or 4-speed should bolt right up.  Be aware that there are 5 differents gear ratios. The wide ratio gearset is identified by 3 lines around the input shaft.

IIRC the original tranny should be a Saginaw anyhow.  

The 6 also used 327 pistons and rods.

Cut the bellhouseing mounts off and use a rear tranny mount like a car. Won't the 5 speed bell housing fit?  

Curtis, I think you are missing the original point.  Oger is looking for a bolt-in replacement.  Virtually anything can be made to fit, but only a few trannys will bolt in with minimal mods.  

I also have a 69 longbed with the original 5.0L 307ci motor, I need steering help
