    No big deal. I have had good luck with not breaking anything since Oct 04 so I guess I am due.

    I am doing a bunch of auto research to find the best fit for my application.

    Do it right and put a TH400 (Turbo 400) in it!

    C4 won't hold up to the abuse and the glide will do unless he plans to still drive it on the street. The 2 speed is no fun for that.

    Look no further than here for a trans Jeff:
