    Thanks, Geezer... Good idea and good point but I am still worried about retaining heat between rounds.... The price is right but on the other hand it would be another item to add to my pre-flight checklist.... it would be so much easier if I broke down and got me a trailer... (and a bigger truck and a bigger house with some land and more garages to put it all on I'll work on the wifey )

    that tranny might not get as hot as you think it does. I was worried about my C-6 with a 4000 coan stahl on the street. it gets more street than stip time. I broke down and bought a B&M gauge at 72.00. It never goes over 190 degrees in 100 degree weather. I was shocked at how cool it ran. And trust me it gets ran hard quite frequently. And if you think about it those blankets were the only thing available in the earlier years of drag racing, with way less adiquit lubricants in all the trannies also.
