Manual Swap

[m0par0rn0car]

I'm thinking of doing a 4 speed swap on my 69 Plymouth fury 3, right now it had a 318 and a727 but id like to replace the trans with a a833. I don't know what's all involved in the swap or what parts I'd need so I'm looking to get and idea of what im up against

Good luck finding a set of pedals.

WHY ?!? The car (with its 318) would probably run and perform better with the automatic - especially since its a 727.

not worth the trouble unless you're a really good fabricator (and even then). maybe your first part: https://www.forcbodiesonly.com/mopar-forum/threads/rare-c-body-z-bar-and-clutch-pedal-rod.53733/

There was a 4 speed fast top for sale a few days ago.
$6,500 and you will have all the parts you need.

There is/was the 68 convertible in Mass with a 4 speed. Way overpriced.

Way over priced!

Does any one know where this car went?

No Rip, No,
Automatics are for girls and drag racing.

Dave: I used to think that too, until I saw a couple of '62 413 Plymouths with Torque-Flite automatics put ALL the four-speed 409 Chevys and 421 Pontiacs on the trailer at Aquasco Drag Strip back in '62. I think it was that experience that turned me into a MOPAR maniac. . .

Yes they are.
Unfortunately, Slush-A-Matics are now firmly embedded in Class 8's and will only increase. Good bye RoadRanger. We had a good run together.
