evening -
i have an '89 dodge CTD with a spent 727 3-speed auto.....don't really have the spare cash on hand to do a 4500 5-speed swap, but was wondering if the totally rebuilt sm465 i have under wraps would hold the torque of the CTD?
also, with the 727, 3.07/3.08 gearing i was averaging around 22mpg, any speculation on how different the mpg reading would be with a 4-speed manual?
