Posted April 16, 200421 yr comment_77360 referring to the 3N71B transmission, would it be possible to change the gearing for 3rd gear to something like .75, which would be the overdrive from the 4N71B?thx Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11294-swapping-trans-gears-in-auto-trans/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 16, 200421 yr comment_77364 Is the 4N71B an electronic trans. If not why not just fit that.I know a lot of the early overdrive auto trans just locked up the torque converter for fourth gear.

April 16, 200421 yr Author comment_77375 It's Hydraulic and would require mods to the car to fit. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11294-swapping-trans-gears-in-auto-trans/#findComment-77375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 16, 200421 yr comment_77377 I don't believe it would be possible as the front and rear planetary gears would be of a larger diameter and not fit into the 3N71B case.

April 16, 200421 yr Author comment_77431 I thought you would just have to change the gears for 3rd to the new sizes.:disappoin Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11294-swapping-trans-gears-in-auto-trans/#findComment-77431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
