Is a "sluch box" an early iteration of those transmissions that allow you to choose between auto and manual shifting?

1982 340D sluch box .
AC & Biobor used, low fuel lamp on @ 423 miles, 455 miles total and 26 MPG .
The primary difference was : most of this tank of fuel was driven using the cruise control set between 60 ~ 65 MPH, highway miles, not much on town shifting that's been late sine having the transmission rebuilt .
I guess I need to get off my duff and adjust it so the up shafts come sooner .
EVEN SWMBO mentioned it shifts too late recently although I like the better performance .
