Help me ID this trans

[Ronnie4wd]

I bought it because I wanted the flywheel for my 6,2 but maybe I can use/sell the trans if I know what it is.
The guy I bought it from says it´s from a chevy 6,2 2wd and that´s all he knew about it.
It´s got 10 splines front and 27 splines rear.
The np (new process gear) logo is on it.
The cast number is C-15458

Check this out, look at the case number he has listed. Possibly from the same guy/truck?

I can't recall the 'name' of that tranny off hand, but it is a 4 speed manual and 4th is an overdrive. Good for economy, especially with a 6.2 but it's a bit of a weak tranny and doesn't have a really low first gear like the SM 465.

For wheeling I'd say pass, for regular daily driver I'd use it.

That is the same design tranny used behind hemis and 44-6 pak motors. The only "weak" part is the OD gear cluster. Looks like you have the cast iron case, which is stronger than the alum case version. Lots of Mopar guys swap these into their rigs to get decent rpms/economy on the hiway with steep gears.

YUP--a mopar!..

Yeah,its a mopar tranny ,the A-833..I missed out on an 82 K10 at a junkyard that had a freshly rebuilt 6.2 and that tranny in it ,with a NP241 T-case!!--I went to get the money out of the bank (500 bucks!)--and when I returned,the morons had already stuck it in the crusher!--they said "you know how many guys say "I'll be right back",and never COME back!...needless to say,I was pissed!...

I had a Volare with that 4 spd OD tranny,and a slant 6--it got 22 mpg!..many telephone company vans here had that tranny/motor combo too..

Thanks guys, now I know what it is and I´ll save it for some future plans.
I´ll keep looking for a 465-205 .

I'd put a doubler behind that thing. With 4:1 lo range it wouldn't matter that first gear in about 3:1

If you are going to sell it, then I'd say clean it up and paint it. You could squeaze more $$ out of the sale.
