Things are starting to slow down at work, and I am beginning to think about winter projects. The 62 Champ I bought last spring could really use an overdrive transmission. It has a V8 289. I am thinking two different avenues, and I have come here looking for advice. Option 1: find a T85 overdrive and all parts to do a "Studebaker" conversion. Option 2: convert it to a modern overdrive, maybe a T5 or one of it's variants. Has any one done a T5 in a Champ? If so what do you think of the conversion and how hard was it to fab up? Does anyone have a T 85 they would part with? I could go either way on this.
