B engine with powerglide

Anyone here tried the big block with a glide behind ?

Seems to be a problem with the glide adapter 8 bolt holes and the crank with 6 holes..

Dan

TCI sells a 6 bolt adapter.

Mike

I've used both 6 and 8 bolt adaptors on several builds with zero issues. Summit has them listed if you can't find any

I have both flex plates for either crank pattern
As already pointed out they are both available

The adapter is the least of your worries. If you have a torquemonster and you are using a brake you better be using all aftermarket internals. Don't ask me how I know...

Since I don't know the first thing about powerglides,.what are the essential parts to change for 700lbs torque engine ?

School me on this...

Dan

are you planning on using a transbrake?

Dan if you would give more details you will get way better info back. Lots of us running powerglides here so we can help you get started. 700 pounds of torque is going to need some upgrades for sure so start off telling us your plans, weight, power-adder, ect, ect, ect.

Call ATI or look on their website. They have packages for every horsepower level and won't sell you more than you need.

ATI offers some nice stuff. I just bought a powerglide super case and 1.98 gear set for my black duster and a Sonnax 1.58 gear set for my small tire car. After all these years of running powerglides I finally cracked a case

I called RPM in Indiana for some advice on a th400 and they were very helpful.You can call or e-mail

Both the highest power robber automatic trannys are the TH400 and the C6 3 drums and 3 sets of planetary gears are used in both of those trannys

OK ignore the part about the th400 my point was the help in the phone call.

Well had one behind a 1088hp low deck and have one now behind a 1000+hp low deck now. Never any issues with either. Build it right with the right parts and no issues. Current piece is an FTI..
