IIRC, the 442's transaxle used the same internals as the HM282s and its
successors found on the V6 Berettas and Cavaliers, so no extra strength
there.  However, assuming the tranny is from a 92+, then you have the
lower gearing:  3.94 FDR versus 3.61.  I think.

How about the HM283 used on the 5 speed versions of the 3.4L DOHC?  Rare
beasts.
