I have spent a lot of time searching this forum about the Gear Vendor setup and found a lot of great information and success stories when installing on a 727 but almost nothing on the A833.  Would like to hear how you fellow 3 peddlers like your Gear Vendor and if you have any regrets or recommendations.
My setup is a 1970 Cuda 4 speed with a 383 stroked to 496 running a sure grip with 3.55 gear.  When its not breaking traction it tachs 2,900 at 60mph. I'm hoping the Gear Vendor will let me run 75 at that rpm.

WOW, None of you guys have a Gear Vendor in your 4 speed car? Should I be worried why or be the Guinea Pig.  :thinking:

GV is s great, tough addition. I would have no problems adding one for sure. The RPM drop is pretty much right for most applications too.

Likely easier to put a Tremec TKX 5 speed in  :alan2cents:
