Brad, You've got a tiger by the tail as the '83s thru the '86s were the worst of the bunch, unless it has already been replaced at one time or another. A 350 or a 400 tranny will fit in there, but believe me, you don't want that "engine screaming" type 3-speed box, let alone the hassle of changing the pickup over. The "cheapest" route is to get a used transmission out of a salvage yard which came from a '91 or '92 pickup before GM went to the electrics. Trouble is, you might have to do the job 2 or 3 times to find a good one. I don't envy you; they are an old-fashioned nightmare. Good luck, Allan
