3-4 speed swap

On a 1970 sport custom, that has the 302, 3- speed combo, is there a 4 speed that will swap right in? Not looking for a granny 4.

A toploader should bolt right up, you will need a shifter. Some of the early Bronco houses sell the shifter & there's always ebay. You can get close ratio which pulls better on the road or an overdrive that uses basically the same gearing plus an overdrive.

I think these sites can help you find the tranny you need.

I think 70's v-8 bell for the 3 speed manual has the same bolt pattern as the t/c 4 speeds.

Good luck
