The standard duty three speed manual transmission for '61-'64 Pontiac big cars did have a four bolt side cover and five bolts holding the tail housing on. I have one that came out of a '62 Catalina and just went out and looked at it.

It is the basic Chevy 3 speed with a non-synchro reverse.

If it's the one I'm thinking of it won't take much abuse either. The overall length is pretty short.
