[QUOTE="Jaybird, post: 333311, member: 22283"] To really get off topic...I have had a little experience too with a similar IH set-up as you described, Joe. My partner and I at that time, used the rear-end from a '65 IH truck for a dirt track roundy-round car. That rear end is one of the heaviest, meanest rears you will find. The thing would be useless in late model racing, but we used it for a street stock class car (legal at that time since it had no quick change gearing). The car was a '72 Nova with a measly 307ci. This car hooked up like no other car that it was racing with that monster of a rear. The weight actually helped the hook. (I led in points with that set-up until it became the first car to ever be totaled in a race at that track...another story for another time) Now....back to topic, the tranny of that old truck did have ATF. We found that, that particular model called for a gear oil but the last owner had apparently went to ATF. He must have known something too. My bet was it made it easier to shift. (?) [/QUOTE]
