You sure your sphincter wasn't sucking itself to the floorboards My Duster gave me similar lessons more than once on the street, hence me using the ET street bias plys on the street only after about the fifth WOW, that was a hairy experience

I drove my new to me 67 Coronet 604" Hemi 70+ miles today. It drives like a dream. 3.70 gear with an A618 trans and 315/50/15 tire is 2500 at 67mph. It should be against the law to have this much fun! 10:1 comp with a 650 lift solid roller. Sounds great! Can you post a picture, or two, or three? LOL. How do you like the trans, how hard was it to install etc. Nothing I've driven beats a HEMI Coronet!

It just a push of a button to engage the overdrive. It built for 1200lbs TQ. The bell housing was cut off and welded a 727 housing on.

Very cool! I love these big cube pump gas street cars. I'm dying to put an overdrive in my 500" Duster but it's not affordable right now so I'm gonna remove the 3.55 gears from the 8.75 rearend and put some 3.23's in but 2.76's are not out of the question. With the torque of these motors, the 3.55 feels the same as a 4.30 gear in some of my previous cars. I have a tight 10" Dynamic converter, hoping it can handle a 2.76. Overdrive would be so nice. I've never heard of the a618, what vehicle does it out of? Got any pics of your car?
