Eric, Just my two cents, on your issue. Ninty percent of the cars that run a the strip . Are automatics. Eazyer on the drivetrain and more consistent times. I spend alot a time alot at alot of tracks and I see what guys are using. I run a turbo 400 with a automatic valve body. With a higher shift point, then stock. All I do is put the car in third gear, and put the pedal to the floor. Look what all the new COPO camaros come with from the factory? BBBenny

Absolutely agree -- I've run turbo 350 and 400s ... and as indicated, much easier on the drivetrain. Or you could run a beefed glide -- two speeds ... fast and faster. TAZ
