The GV are pricey but a sturdy choice I think. I put a Passon OD 4 speed behind a 572 Hemi and I thought it worked pretty well with the torque band of the big engine too. I would do it again but I understand different choices.

The 4 Passon 4 speed OD was on the radar, but the 1st to 2nd jump was too big for me.

Playing football for 22 yrs straight is taking its toll.  Hopefully, I'll avoid the brain stuff - now where did I put my keys, or car for that matter?  LOL!

Okay, time for another misdirection to your thread.

"Playing football for 22 years straight .."?? We got us a celebrity!! What's your story Mops??  :popcorn:
Cheers!

Tis' better to have owned classic Mopars and lost than to have never owned at all (apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson)

My son's at Western right now, he played HS football, but I don't think he'll make the Mustangs (or even try out) :D

UWO is a great school and one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life.  Kudos on sending him there.

Thank you....He's first year Engineering, not an easy program to get in, we're very proud of him. His Mom graduated class or '94 from UWO as well. :clapping:
