Does anyone know if 12 bolt ratios were different for 4spds?How about driveshafts or yokes? Thanks to everyone for the help. Michael

Gear ratios were an option which means that someone could have ordered the car with anything regardless of whether the car came with an auto or stick. Having said that, the auto. cars generally had a lower gear ratio than the stick cars. 3.08 gears were common for both auto and 4-spd in 67 and 68 small block cars.

First gen addict...Thanks, this one is Tripoli Turquoise, Its got a 375 hp TicTocTach 12 bolt no engine or trans. It looks to be an original L34-35 M-40. The sheet metal looks original. Floors uncut, no real rust. Ive got a CE 375 block and heads. The heads are dated the same and are 30 days from the block. I think it would be a real interresting project.

Are all the chevy 4 speed "underfloor sheetmetal" torched out? I seem to recall a nova? I had with the std floor torced out under the spot welded hump.
