Who's running a PG behind a small block?

I got this itch also one time, i decided to install a p/g in my super street duster with a 440. i used everything from Trans King. convertor, electric shift valve body, flywheel, adapt kit. i had to fabricate the trans mount & fab the adapter plate into a mid-plate. the only thing i did't like was the starter bolted directly to the 3/8 mid plate. there is no support for the starter nose. i was warned by other racers about the starter problems, broke housings, etc. i made a custom nose support out of a block of alum. my car weighed 3300 lbs with me in it. total cost for everything, including building the trans, was cheap $1200.00. i had more than $2000.00 in my t/flite. results- it was very consitent, just stick in an rpm shift chip & stab & steer. however, it was the most boring race car i had ever driven. no more wheel stands, 1.5 tenths slower, i went from 10.60's to 10.80s. it did hook every pass. well two weeks later i put the t/flite back in! i couldn't wipe the grin off my face! later i was told the p/glide will work better in a lighter car. just remember, anything over 3000 lbs needs that 2:45 low first gear. if it was mine, i would put in a 904 with the 2:74 low gear & go have some fun!
