Should I switch to an automatic - 09/20/13 04:16 PM
Hi everybody!
I am considering putting an automatic where the 4 speed lives in my 64 Dodge. The reasoning behind this is hopefully lower maintenance and less parts breakage when bracket racing at GLD. Talk me into, or out of it. If into what sort of stuff does a 727 need to do this keeping in mind I know nothing about automatics.
The car is old school with a 383, ported 906s Torker intake, 750 dp, .557” 296 duration solid DC cam and 4.56s in a 9”. It has run as quick as 12.82 and as fast as 109.5 mph.
Thanks very much for any and all opinions and information.
