Is there a practical way to add overdrive to a 107? Possibly retrofitting a later trans to the mighty V8, or adding a planetary unit to the tail of the stock trans? Ideally I would want to use it in conjunction with a lower ring & pinion set to add a few hunert rpm with the OD switched off and then drop even more rpm when the OD's engaged. I did see a link while surfing that mentioned using the G.M. 700R4 which with its relatively low 1st gear might negate the need for the R&P swap. I'm not real keen on using chebby parts even though that trans has a good reputation.
Has anybody done anything?

Well, you need to make up an adapter plate and joint. I do know of one that has it done..and the fellow is hopefully going to let me have a look @ it all so I can copy it should I so choose..We shall see!
