Ok everyone. My previous topic raised a bunch of questions. I have been talking to a local transmission shop in the Seattle area about building a 12 bolt for my '68 (soon to have a 509 ci with 540HP and 580 ft-lbs, and TH-400 transmission.) I have goten an "around $2500" estimate.
For this amount of torque, should I be looking at a 9"? My understanding was that 12 bolt could be strong enough to handle this amount of power plus more. What is your feeling on the $2500 estimate fot the 12 bolt?
You input will be greately appreciated once again.
Thank you.
