The best transmission I have ever owned and driven is an Extreme Automatics built 200R4 with a Precision of New Hampton 3800 stall, lock-up, billet converter bolted to my 408 Magnum with a Reid bell housing. They can be built to handle up to 1000 hp & 800ft lbs of torque, are more efficient and are compact. I didn't have to cut my floor either.

1968 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible 408 Magnum EFI with 4 speed automatic overdrive, 3800 stall lock-up converter and 4.30's (closest thing to an automatic 5 speed going)
