69 L78 Tranny question

[ohhawk]

Don, taking a look at another resource on your question....Mike Mueller's Chevelle 1964-1972 book says regarding the '69 Chevelle SS..."Turbo Hydra-matics were also offered behind the brutish L78 for the first time, as were all the manuals, including the Super Sport special MC1 3 speed and M20 wide ratio four speed units that previously had been spared the wrath of 375 horses".

This would support what the other fellas said about the MC1 which the Red Book did not mention.

Thanks Dick, I knew I read it somewhere. Before I posted the question I quickly scrolled through that book, but it didn't specifically jump at me. I see it now, page 73

What I would really like to see is a copy of the "Dealer Option Order Book" where it would indicate what "other" options needed to be ordered with specific options. For example, when ordering the Z25 SS Option, it was necessary to order J52 Power Disc Brakes. Was there a spcific "tranny option" required when ordering the L78? I still think not, but am always learning
