C-4 or Powerglide

What kind of RPMS do you run?

Power level sounds like 'glide territory for hte weight of a stripped Mustang.

Im in the same situation,and really Im still undicided.

Were runing the C4 right now,and its nice because you can run 1/8 and 1/4 on the same rear gear.The 3 speed is alot better on the street,and when it hookes up it launches HARD!

But the glide has its advantages too,of corse being its praticle unbreakable below say,1200hp?And the fact that it has more clutches per pack and has less rotating mass it will get more power to the ground.But then your stuck with a 1st gear around 1.70-1.80 then you need a larger rear gear which limites your top end speed,as its still has a 1:1 final.

We got a PA Super comp C4 in our car now,hasnt gave use a single problem yet,there very nice transmissions.What converter are you runing?We are runing a 8",sending it back to have it tightined up,and sould be having mid-low 1.3 60' and shouldnt blow though it with a 250-350hp shot like we did befor.

I would run a Glide. I run one in my Falcon. My dad runs one in his Super Gas Mustang. They are strong and cheap to maintain.

A friend of mine has a 84 capri running a 408 and a 300 hp shot of nitrous making about 800-850 hp and for some reason snapped his powerglide in half in a 1/8 mile run. it looked like it was a bellhousing and a transmission. craziest thing i ever saw. but i would still go with the powerglide.

I switched my car from a pa super comp c4
to a bte powerglide and I picked up 2 mph
and lowered my e.t. My combo makes roughly around 700 hp
and my car weighs 3100 with me in it.I would go with the glide as long as you can turn some high rpm. I am also running a 8" converter.

Hmm,pretty nice there RADIAKILLER.Mind sharing your set-up,I got something simalr and would like to know what your runing.

Thats pretty impresive you picked up 2mph by switching to a glide.
