How accurate is the bit about V-8 with impossible to downshift 4 speed??? How come they kept on being used if they were impossible? They did say Ford were good for convoy work while Chevys were good for heavy loads.
Kind Regards

Not really, in fact it's quite easy to do perfect downshifts on a Ford, using the heel toe method. All CMPs are nicely set up for this.
You just have to be good at picking your speed to judge the shift from third to second - it's quite a gap.
