The new TH400 and torque converter are done.

I placed the order last Monday. I should receive the trans and torque converter today. Awesome and quick. These were customized for my application. It should handle up to 1,400 hp.

Art Carr's (So. Ca.) organization is awesome. They are organized and quick. Keep in mind, I do expect quality well.

Again, Art Carr's service is AWESOME!

I'll post pics soon.

Ever decide what your doing with the 396? Im still waaaay jealous yet happy at the same time, an odd feeling to say the least.

I also DEMAND an mpeg once you stuff the new mill in there and get her running. Dont make me fly out there!!!!!! http://www.chevelles.com/forum/wink.gif http://www.chevelles.com/forum/rolleyes.gif

Midnight Marauder,

Sorry, the 396 and 468 are sold. They were sold to two nice TC forum members. I'm glad the two members took advantage of the great deal I offered.

An mpeg is a definate. I just bought a digital video cam just for this purpose. It is a great digital video camera so you will see quality footages.

Fly down anyway and I'll take you for a spin http://www.chevelles.com/forum/smile.gif

Thanks and God Bless USA!

WHOA there Tony! Dont tempt me, I might take you up on the offer.....Glad to hear the mills atleast went to fellow TC'ers. GL! wirth the project, looking forward to seeing the results....perhaps one day in person, I got frequent flier miles to spend and a trip in that beast would be well worth some of 'em.
