Re: T-400 Vs Powerglide
I was also worried about the hookup. I figured I would have to change the rear gear back to a 4.10 with the 400, but didn't know if that would hurt or just offset the gear reduction and I would be right back to where I am. (Except my wallet would be lighter) In the classes I run (Nostalgia Super Sto...

T-400 Vs Powerglide
I have a 3350lb 500CI Chevelle, 4.30 gear 29x10 tire. I am thinking of switching from the PG to the 400. Does anybody have some before and after comparisons on Et and mph? Either way from a 400 to a PG or PG to 400. I need to gain a couple of tenths in my car. My car will run 10.10's in good weather...

Anybody ever bought a Shafiroff Short Block?
My stock Block is shot and I only have 11.5:1 compression. I was going to find me a new block and do all the machine work and stick my callies stuff in it along with a new set of pistons, but I was thinking of stepping up to a 540.
Any one here have any experience with them?
