I agree with all comments!
The closest trans shop so far willing to do one of these Ultramatics is in Chicago.....550 miles. Is it really worth it? I am under the impression I would rather have a modern trans with an overdrive for a service standpoint.
I offered an engine & trans to Bendsten Trans. Adapters in an effort to get this going, but Bob has already got one.
I am not inclined to go with Sierra Grove Packards kit, due to comments & facts of the 727.
Kevin's 4L60 really looked like a nice setup.
I may have to wait this out unfortunately. I already had the car scheulded to have it painted and interior done............not before I have the problems resolved.
