I installed a Mitchel 26% overdrive last summer in our Tudor and am very happy. Best of both worlds. Overdrive for country driving and standard drive around town. 3.78 rear end ratio. Stock engine with stock head handles it very well. When installing the Mitchel, I replaced an old Borg Warner 33% overdrive in the same car, same engine. Honestly, the Borg pulled too hard for that engine. Any hill or headwind was too much, and always had to shift back to standard.
