I wonder how much more the 4500 weighs versus the 3500 and if it would make
it not worth it to swap from a Slush-Box ?

It sounds like it is hard enough just finding any kind of shifters or
anything for the 3500 , I would guess that the 4500 would be a futile
attempt.

Probably easier in the long run to find the person that will install the
6-speed BECAUSE CONSTANT VELOCITY MAKES YOU BUY A WHOLE CONVERSION BEFORE
THEY WILL EVEN GIVE YOU THE OPTION OF GETTING THE TRANNY!

That sucks !
