kpinnc 14,589 #2 Posted May 24, 2009 Just remember the axles on the 8 4speed are very long, so the wheels will be set further in if you use the Work Horse tranny. Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin I decided to leave the stock 5085 transmission in my '73 8 HP 4-Speed . I know another Red Square member Astrolite swap his out to put an '71 Work Horse 800 tranny in like the B-80's .
