5 clutches in each pack, #9 roller thrust, good servo and a good valvebody kit , Transgo 67-2 kit would be good . Be selective which pan you use to give plenty of oil
There's plenty you can do Smile

Thanks mate. . What's this talk they say about drilling the drum for oil to release out of the clutches ? Or I don't need to worry about this sort of thing for my application ? ......

Quite common to drill some holes around the high/reverse drum, does allow oil to release and flow through to keep clutches cooler also

There's a few ways can be done . Can do 4 evenly spaced holes approx 1/4" each, or multiple 1/8" holes in a pattern as per Franks instructions .

Use a  Kevlar "flex" band , standard width.  I'm just finishing my own and I went with the wide ratio gear set , CJ governor , Summit "no name" deep aluminum pan, and Superior ( no machining)servo. The rest is like Greg laid out 5 clutches and needle bearings wherever possible.

That looks like one of Franks drums . You can do like that is one way . Or 4 evenly spaced holes also works ok if using basic shift kit type mods . Have sent email with some pics and info.

Since photobucket killed all of my old threads, I started a facebook business page for my projects.

This is one on doing a full roller c6:
