When it comes to fun driving I have always been a fan of the Borg Warner 3 speed Overdrive transmissions. The T-86 with The R10 OD like the one going in my roadster is not that strong but I think it will handle the 4 cylinder I'm building. I'm using it because the floor shift top plate from a Jeep T90 bolts on. The T-85 used in Studebaker Hawks and Ford pickups is rugged and the OD on them is the R11. A Hurst floor shift conversion works well. There is some wiring to do and they are not easy to find but they are out there even on eBay. I don't know what else they came in but evidently there is a Chevy application too. There is also a Saganaw 3 speed with a BW OD.
