When I tried this with the big blocks, the results were not pretty, and I am told that it was because a lack of information was present. So, vote on what you feel are the top 2 transmissions from the list above, and once again, defend your choice below.
The car is an 86 Olds Cutlass Brougham with an Olds 455 complete with "E" heads, 850 cfm quadrajet, headers, bored .060 over, and camed. The rear is a Ford 9" SPOHN rear end with 3.73? rear end, and the car IS street legal. It makes 600? h.p. and the car will be driven on a road trip from Iowa to California to Alabama and back to Iowa again. Bill Gates has given the "owner" a blank check so the budget is limitless and the "owner" is not affraid to try anything, including using computers on the car. And as far as bolting the transmission to the engine, high strength adapter plates will be used if nessicery.
As far as stall goes, or shift kits, that is up to you to decide what YOU would do.
I hope I gave enough information this time. Which of the trannys mentioned above would you choose and why? please give a 1st and 2nd vote unless you are dead set on one transmission.
If I have managed to piss anyone off this time,I will simply delete the post.
