Replacing a 3 speed with a 4 speed only in Super Stock, this "swap" is not allowed in stock. I would have thought that a 3speed auto and a 4spd manual came in this car? If there is no way to run these combinations then I would run the powerglide. We run a 3spd manual in SS and it is a hard road. I like the unique combo. I might have some stock heads for that combo if interested.
