Well, I think I have given up on finding an affordable T56 (or any other standard overdrive tranny) to put behind my stock 454, in my Bel Air. As much as I wanted to manually shift, I don't think its going to happen. I am now looking at a 700R4. I really want an overdirve to take the family on those long trips.

Anyone have experience with this tranny? What did you use for a torque converter? I d like to use an aftermarket one with a higher stall speed. How about a "lock up" switch, what did you use?

Surpsingly, I don't see too many aftermarket "lock up" torque converters out there (Summit only lists one). Any feedbakc would be great, thx guys
