Transmission Interchange?
Looking for a transmission for my 71 1608 and found an 82 with low miles, near me and cheap. Will this work?

Re: Transmission Interchange?
yes!
1. the speedometer will not be accurate, as the gearing on the speedo drive will be different.
2. if your car had a 1438 in it, the bellhousing will be different. can be a direct bolt on swap
3. the shifter, if yours is original, it is a pull up for reverse, the 82 will be a push down, you can interchange the complete assemblies with no issue, or use the one that came with the new trans.
