Sorry Leon, but I would have to disagree this time..
That $2500.00 would include a high dollar converter with a Glide.
I don't know where you buy your gear sets, but you can get them for less than $800.00 anywhere now to accept 1000hp+
http://www.racingjunk.com/category/1087/...F-THE-LINE.htmlAlso, a good built Glide with a stock gear set 1.76 will take close to 900hp for a good while..
I finally broke one after 2000 runs.
I have about 5 cases and can build a really strong Glide for less than $1500 to withstand that 1000hp.
BTW, I traded my super high $$$$$ Pro Trans TF back to Dave years ago for a Glide from Mikes Transmissions.. Won a couple of Wallys and never looked back.
Not baggin on Torqueflites here, just pointing out that Glide can be done much cheaper than you have stated.
Also, if you are at the track and trash your glide, chances are VERY GOOD that someone has another that you could bolt right in and continue going rounds..
Try that with a 727..
