    So I've been looking through some standards the last few days and here's my options as i see it:

    t-56 6 speed, Muncie 4 spd, or Saginaw 4 spd, and the Super T-10

    Like I said in an earlier post, I'm taking a 400 and building a 377 out of it. Therefore, I will be turning this motor pretty hard and I'm shooting for about 450-500 horses. This is my first time using a standard in a performance operation and I am unfamiliar with all of these transmissions so any help on which is the better out of these 4 trans. for my application would be great.

    I should also say that this el camino is going to be used in street/strip type of thing with a posi rear but i haven't figured out what ratio just yet. So basically i need a tough trans, that i can use with a lot of rpms, and actually use on the street as well.
