Adding an overdrive (BW T-19 to ZF-5 transsmission swap)

I originally wrote this for the ecomodder blog, but nothing is being posted and I haven't heard from the admin in quite some time, so I'm giving yall the information here.

I recently swapped out my transmission in order to get the power of overdrive, and encountered all sorts of unexpected problems in the process (due to having never done a similar project before) so I did an extensive write up to ensure anyone else who does the same or similar in the future can avoid learning them the hard way.

Sorry about that. I poked Ben on your behalf.

Thanks for posting! I have a 1976 F-100 that I am planning to one day do the ZF swap on. Of all the articles I searched on the subject, yours has the most useful tips!

Glad to help.
I put a lot of time into writing it, but your comment makes it all worthwhile.
