Anyone want one?

I had mine copied ...

No spacer needed behind the auto trans flex plateNo starter motor problems

Uses factory bell housingUses factory auto trans flex plateUses factory starter motor

Powerglides are a dime a dozen, CHEAP and can withstand RIDICULOUS amounts of hp ...

About 20 cm in diameter so freight would be no drama's what so ever

If anyone wants one ... let me know ...

Did you design it, or have it done?

If you drew it, would you be willing to share the RE4RO3A bolt pattern?

I just realized that all of the FSM drawings are askew.

I'm interested in one.. I was going to make an adapter for a C4, but this will do.

What kind of converter needs to be ran?

Can I run any Powerglide converter with this setup? I'm wondering if a multi-disc torque converter can be hooked up. Also, how hard would it be to make an adapter for a TH400?

I had the original made when I had my powerglide built ...

I asked alot of questions with one of the best auto trans shops in OZ.

They are known for building big power RELIABLE gearbox's ... in sub 8 second cars ...

I asked about C4, TH350, TH400, PG, etc ...

They basically said ... C4 and TH350 would break

TH400 and PG were the ones they suggested and TH400 was more expensive, drains more power and physically bigger ... hence i went the PG (mainly because of the small tunnel size)

Any glide convertor can be used YES ... obviously just get one to suit your engine setup ... you DO have to modify the convertor feet to suit the VH45 flex plate ... any gearbox place should be able to do that and you would expect to do that if you got a different convertor with the factory auto as well ...

Anyway here's a photo of the original
