Tranny help.
hello TGO memebers.
i just took my car to the race track.
ran a 15.4 with a 305 and a stock 700r4 using the manual shifting.
here is the link to the run.
if you listen carefully it kind of sounds like a powerglide trans.
which it isnt.
just that my trans is cooked.
the car takes off nicely in first gear. second gear just makes noise until 4,500RPM, then at 5,200RPM i have to shift into 3rd, which does not engage.
so i shift it into Drive ... which still doesnt work... until i let off completely on the gas pedal...
now i know with a good working trans i could break the 15 second barrier. and possibly go into the 14s...
any suggestions on modifying a 700r4 that shifts nicely. and can hold power?
i want to keep the 700R4 unless some one has a better suggestion.

Re: Tranny help.
Call me, 909 795-1876 I have everything you need to do this right. The way I set up the build kits you will have smooth 1-2 part throttle shifts, and firm WOT shifts. Go to https://www.700r4l60e.com/store/home.php?cat=19 This will give you an idea of what there is. Dana
