Hey guys, I have a 81 TA that was a auto car originally. Since then, the car has had a sbc 355 and a 4-speed muncie installed. Now, I really want the overdrive gears, so i want to go with a 5 speed or 6 speed so the car gets better mileage on the highway. My dad and I put the muncie in the car, and it wasn't too crazy of a job.
I need to know what parts I will need to convert the 4 speed setup to the 5 or 6 speed setup. I know there are kits available that come with everything you need, but I heard they are pricey. If someone has already done the swap, and can give me some insight on what I need and how difficult of a job it is, I would really appreciate it. Let me know if its a do-able conversion or if it is worth the extra money to buy a whole new kit and save some headaches. Thanks for your time!
