My father has a 1969 Mach 1, currently with a 4 speed manual. The car is getting a engine out paint job and he mentioned he would like to change the transmission to a modern 5 speed manual or a new 6 speed automatic.
I got a quote for him from a reputable online seller for about 4200 to do a TKO 600 swap. Does this sound reasonable?
I have found zero information on doing a modern auto swap, not sure if they would even fit in the tunnel? The TKO is billed as a direct fit with no cutting (just adapter plates and braces).
He wants to be able to cruise the highway at 65-70 without spinning the crap out of it, plus the 4 speed (super t10?) shifts like crap.
