Cable operated linkage

Do any of the ford manual overdrive transmissions run a cable operated linkage? I'm looking for a transmission to attach to a 460.

The ones discussed here have been the SMOD and SROD, for Side Mounted Over Drive, where the linkage is on the side like an old top loader (this is a top loader tranny, but different from the original hi-po top loader) or BW T-10. The SROD is "Single Rail Over Drive" and uses an internal rail linkage.

No cable ops.

Also, these are probably too weak to go behind a 460.

Go to:

and check out "ID charts" and "Toploader Imposters" and you will see the wimpy gears in these boxes.

You can go ZF, as those were made for 460 power, or original top loader with the priced like gold Gear Vendor, Ranger or other fine brand overdrive unit.

Or go modern:

Good luck.
