The first help you need is to take off the "Caps lock" and quit yelling. Also, tell a little bit about yourself. AKA: an intro.

It kinda reminds me of the loud guy in Dilbert when you do that.
I know of a 49 O/D for a buck fifty that should work. It's in Texas tho.

I had to read that 3 times before I could get through it. the words started blurring together like one of those 3D puzzles. Where in NorCal are you from? People are a lot more friendly when they know who you are!

1. Go to a overdrive transmission store, and buy one that will fit your car.
2. Jack up your car, and remove the old transmission.
3. Install the overdrive parts you bought.
4. Hook up everything that needs to be hooked up to make it work.
5. To make sure you get down and dirty, don't use a lift, and don't clean anything you take off or install.

You're welcome. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
