Toolmanmike, I have spoken with Brewer's and am certain I will use them for some of my needs, but all the various parts start to add up quickly so it can't hurt to see what's out there. I also like to get different opinions on the conversion. As far as doing away with the torqueflite, its not that I dislike them, they're a fantastic transmission. But, I've decided I won't go through the expense of the restoration with an automatic, they're just too common and the value is not there when its finished. Besides, I just plain want a 4 speed with overdrive in the car. It would be great on the freeway going to shows, and for touring. I think the 4 speed offers more of the sportiness the Formula S was meant to convey.
