I looked at them, Tom. Even contacted one or two of the companies that make them. My big concern is that the Ranchero is going to be primarily a drag car with slicks. Though there torque ratings are at what the motor will be producing, it leaves little room. I'm concerned that the max effort passes and hi RPM launches with slicks would kill it. On the street, I think it will be the ideal transmission. The big overdrive will make for some pleasant and trouble free cruising. And, I keeping looking at the BDS site and their 10 71 blower setup for the big block Ford!!!! Should I decide to eventually update to that kind of torque numbers in an engine, the T-56 would be way overpowered. I do have all the specs and the phone number should I change my mind and decide to be on the street more. Thanks for the input. Really anxious to hear how yours works out, that power tour stuff looks like it would be a blast!!!! Maybe I should just leave the racing to the kids and join up.....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
