Super T10
I have a 79 auto, looking at a new Super T10 on the Richmond website. Richmond states 375lbs torque rating for the trans. This 4 speed would be behind a 383 425hp mid 400 in torque. Should I just build my turbo 350 trans instead? I had a nice 78 T/A w/ 400ci with maybe 375hp and a boat load of torque. I was on it all the time! .No problems.

None of the automatic cars had the bracket on the frame for the Z bar linkage. It can be welded on or someone now makes a bolt on or you can use a hydraulic clutch system. I have used all but the bolt on one. Welding is pretty easy and the hydraulic units are pretty nice but a little on the pricey side.
The nice thing with an automatic car is the removeable cross member. The 4 speed cars had a welded in cross member. The removeable one makes trans removal a breeze. I converted my 4 speed to a removeable member.
