External Gear Reduction

Besides the fact some internals/gears can be switched out given the right circumstances for specific cars/hardware.

Knowing there have been External Gear Reducers(Overdrives) for very specific models in the 70's.

How hard/probability would it be to scroung one of these up and or Create one of these using the straight forwardness of DIY!?

Not to be selectable or variable, but a Full-time (overdrive) Possibly In-line with the drive shaft for ease of (use/construction/mounting). Basically giving you a revised (Final Drive) to your axle, without tearing apart into your tranny and elliminating the need to hunt down internal "compatible" hardware(for most don't exist)...
