My best guess, based on the few clues I have is that my 61 was born as a 230 hp w/ powerglide.
The clues:
5500 redline
custom bubba clutch pedal
mangled firewall where clutch rod passes through
no evidence of return spring plate on frame ever existing
short yoke on driveshaft, but shaft probably not original
Diff is 3.36 which points to 3 speed but carrier is non-corvette so diff prob isn't either.
I guess it could have been a 245 also with 5500 redline?
Seems obvious that it was a powerglide to me, but I've been wrong with every assumption I've made so far about this car!
Thanks for any input you can provide!
