I have been searching the forums for over an hour now and just do not have the right combination of search terms to locate what I'm looking for.

There was a thread a while back that was discussing the differences between the various 5-speed tranny models. In the thread was a pic of two 5-speeds side by side standing up on end (I think that the background was orange) and one was from a '77. It illustrated the difference based upon the mounting ears on the 'nose' of the tranny (one ear vs. two).

Does anyone have a link to this thread?

Here is the page you saw.

You can also click on my gallery pics for the main differences between the late 4 spds and early and late 5 spds.

Tex, Here's a thread I started that might have what you're looking for. Gary D.
