What does the car weigh ? ...what rear-end gearing? .. these are important factors.

are you sure the throttle pressure linkage is adjusted correctly?

Well the first was stock and the second was a t.c.i...if you have one properly built they will last,i run one in my 3180 lb '70 duster with either my 520 h.p. 416 stroker or my 400 h.p. 360,and it has held up for 3 seasons of abuse at the track with really no issues...

I have a Cope trans and it works perfectly. I have a 450 HP small block. Not an HP guess, engine dyno results.

did those 904's have manual valve bodies? If not, did you have the kickdown linkage hooked up?

Me thimks you are probably hard on the ole 904 trans. .... and the 3.23 gear is not helping either.

I would suggest a 727 and be done with it.
