Congratulations my friend, I'm very happy for you. You are now available to put this step behind you and move on. We both know what a long unpleasant process this is. I sure hope I'm the next one to make a post such as this. Again, Very happy for you.

Thanks for the post. Looks like great fun!I really need to get to work on my w-8 project. I just cant seem to get away from work this time of year. Does your car have a glide or torqueflite? Good Luck with it, I'll bet it flies!

From what I've seen here David is that the trend is to go powerglide with these builds although many did run the torque flight in the beginning. I'll be running my 727 for awile, but it appears the writing may be on the wall...
