best auto trans is the C-6. but it does not have overdrive. a good trans once some work done to is is the E4od, hooked to the BW 1356 t-case. this engine trans t-case combo came standard in the 89 F250, so all the parts to put it together are readily available in junk yards.

Thank you guys for your help, I've been doing some research and figured out the c6 is good for me simple with no electronics try to keep somewhat old school will be used as mudracer, hotrodder and daily Driver. I will do some research on np205 again thanks for help.

If you plan on running bolt on long tube headers for that chassis, do not use a 205 unless you also backdate to a 70's front axle. Pinion, and transfer case output location changed by 4" 79 to 80, and a 79 and older runs the front driveshaft on the inside of the exhaust, 80 and newer the driveshaft is on the outside. With a 205 you end up with the driveshaft taking up all the space under there and no room for headers designed for the chassis.
I abuse a 1345 in my 44 shod toy and have for the last 12 years. I have never had an issue. The low range is much better, and they shift like butter compared to a 205. My 205 does not cooperate nicely.
