I have a '64 sedan with a Flight-O-Matic. I rebuilt it several years ago with the first gear start valve body. I really like how it drives. Put it in 'D' and it just shifts thru the three gears, up and down. It's great for around town.
Now I need a little education on the Power Shift automatic found in the 63s and 64s. Is it a four speed? Can I put a first gear start valve body in it and then put it in 'D' and shift through four gears?
I ask because someone here in town has a burned up '64 Avanti and I can get the Power Shift tranny from him. It would have to be rebuilt of course. I can also get the engine. The engine has flat top pistons and supercharger. Don't know which 'R' that makes it. Unfortunately, the supercharger has too much heat damage(partially melted).
Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
