Re: [Chevelle-list] Saginaw Tranny???

[Tom Tomlinson]

I had a Saginaw 4 speed in my first '71 Malibu 350 and drove it for 130k miles with no problems. My second '71 Malibu 350 also has a 4 speed Saginaw. The engine has more than the stock HP, but probably not more than 300. I can't speak for how it would hold up behind a high HP engine, but as a daily driver the Saginaw was fine for me.   Tom Tomlinson ----- Original Message ----- From: Tony Gavel To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2005 10:40 AM Subject: [Chevelle-list] Saginaw Tranny??? Has anyone had any experience with a Saginaw 4 speed in a 70 Chevelle - pros or cons?  I have a Saginaw 4 speed and I was wondering if it's any good compared to a Muncie. Should I want to rebuild it and put it into my 70 which presently has a TH350 auto?  Any comments would be appreciated.   Thanks........tony
