Why It Matters
A three-speed manual was standard for 1958. Chevrolet also offered the two-speed Powerglide and a four-speed manual. The solid-lifter 270- and 290-hp engines required a manual transmission; case, date, linkage, shifter, engine suffix, and history should support a car-specific pairing.
