<VV> bogus Corsa on eBay : Saginaw transaxle?

[Charles Lee]

Have I been deluding myself?

I have always heard the '66 to '69 transmission called a "Saginaw" to
distinguish it from the smaller, less robust '65 transmission.

I bought one and all the bolts for the U-joints were much larger than the
1/4" bolts on the '65 non-Saginaw one I took out.

I understand it's strong enough to handle V-8 conversions?

Maybe all made in Saginaw, so why the special designation as "Saginaw" for
'66 and later?

Being misrepresented is a problem and a red flag to start off, but the '66 4
speed being a Saginaw is the biggest distinction?
