Drag car height

Curious if a glide is physically smaller than a 727. I have a BBM Duster, and want to lower it some, but the deep 727 trans pan actually hangs down some. Wondering how everyone gets their car so low....

If the trans pan is below your headers I think that is an issue. The headers are the lowest point on my car. I run a moroso aluminum trans pan and it is not the lowest point under my car. It allows me to hold about 8-9 qts of trans fluid and that seems to be plenty for my application.

Headers are above the wheel spindles.....lol

Lowest point are my custom headers, sitting at exactly 2 inches. That’s with an aluminum deep dish pan on a 727.

I run a cast deep pan on a turbo 400, what helped a lot was to mill the cooling ribs off it. Right now i have about 3.5" to the trans pan, but the rear of my oil pan is 2.75" . But im not driving anywhere except in the trailer and to the lanes at the track.

You still have stock suspension up front? you can put a fairly tall aftermarket urethane snubber in the lower arm. Trim it that it only has 1/4 to an 1/8 clearance at rest, this way you know the car wont "bottom out" and your limiting the down travel in the front suspension.

How about using some spacers between the trans mount and the transmission tail shaft mount

I have Magnum Force front end on it, and its lowered a little already,

Trans is right up against the floor with the shield htting

My car sits as low as I can get it with a stock driveshaft tunnel, and front frame rails. The lower control arms are almost touching the bump stops that have been cut down a inch. My scattershield is one of the lowest parts of the car, other than the headers, and 4 link crossmember.

Mine sits low and my deep trans pan as low as my headers also. However it is still several inches from the ground. If you want to increase your ground clearance just put a standard pan back on it and run a large cooler.

Are you running the B&M deep pan? If so, they're deep pans, more for a truck. I'm running the TCI deep pan, two inches higher & I run -8 lines to & from a big cooler to add fluid volume. 6k converter & can hot lap no problems.
