The Borg Warner T-18 granny 4 speed should work fine if you want low gears I believe it has a 6.73:1 granny low, I just sold one that came off of a 300 I6 running 38" tires it still took off fine in 2nd gear.

nolanc2, thanks for the info, a low first gear at that ratio would be good, thanks again.
