Only down side is now your looking for a new shifter. Lots of good glide shifters out there in both air and solenoid.

Headed to a race in Tucson this evening myself. First points race I've made all year (so far) See if I can't clear out some of the cobb-webs and rust (in the drivers head that is LOL)
Marv, it is turbo spline and yes a new converter, ATI treemaster MRT . It went to 3200 on the the dyno which he said wous be 4200-4400 in may application . My window switch will work dropping power also for a glide noid . The trans also came with the old style hurst powerglide shifter quarter stick maybe . I am running No-E and E today and next weekend i am running IHRA in both classes footbrake and electronics (sat) and mod and top plus 7.0 index sunday .

It will be a couple of weeks before i get it installed as i have to fab a trans mount and driveshaft has to be modded to fit . My new (25 passes) Freakshow deal will go into the S-10 LS deal . I also bought a stock case glide that he built fr a guy who never came back and picked it up . I got a stock case glide 1.76 with the extra clutches and a sportsman brake , turbo input and deep aluminum pan . Just a good solid trans .
