Don't know if this info is helpful at this point ? But the poster describes the Fordomatic in his car as a 2 speed, but lists the shifts as PRNDL. This is a common misconception, it's not a 2 spd transmission!. .....Dennis (aka Skyhunter) mentions that the transmission body is aluminum. That makes his transmission the 2 speed model and not the Ford-O-Matic. While those two speed automatics were durable and could take a lot of abuse, they were considered sluggish in the performance department. I had one in a 1961 Fairlane with a 292 and can vouch for the sluggishness.
