Hey Guys..

after some ideas in the way of choosing an auto for a hi powered rb25( 27 )

obvious things are a hi stall convertor, 3 or 4 speed perhaps? i had an idea for a powerglide, but i havnt heard too much about them on small displacement engines such as the rbs.

please ppl any ideas or suggestions would be great,

ps needs to handle around 450rwkw.. will be turning the wick up in later stages but i need something for this range atm..

c4 will handle that sort of power as a 3spd
im running a powerglide with my setup going on 2 years without a rebuild car runs low 9s no problems with the box but a 3spd would be better for a street car

you will see here paul has done one for that kind of application, but he knows what converters to use also when it comes to turbo cars better than anyone else in the game i believe, so i wouldnt go anywhere else!
