DO ya think a turbo 400 would have to have a lot of work done??

like he needs to lol. it is what it is.

I know Jon. But its always a riot to hear Frank beat on the Chebies! Especially when they like to shift into neutral after the stripe and chew them up!!

Now dont get me wrong I'm sold on the glide lol.

ill take that challenge on a stock C-6 VS a stock th-400

ok so is it stock vs stock or 1200 dollar t400 vs a 1200 dollar C6?

this will be good!

I can build a c-6 cheaper and out last your 400 turdo or I'll heat the sob! I hear this all the time a customer will call and want me to put a 350 or 400 turdo together for their mustang , and the number one reason is price number two reason is a Ford trans won't live! I call b.s. on that 400 turdo being stock! Thats what I say!
You might want to ask some of the NMRA boys how many of those 400 Turdo they keep for spares and how many of the Hot street boys went back to the power glide because the 400 Wouldn't live. Those boys are just running N/A small block Fords. 440 cid motors.!


Here is one of my c-6 transmissions with 1100 hp turning 9500 rpm and taking off in second gear.
I know what your gone say its not drag racing or using all three gears and I say your not drag a sled!

well i dont care if you believe it or not - its a stock case stock gears-aluminum hub and stock clutches -with a brake

ive had the 400 in my car for 3 seasons and never one issue-ive got many friends that have them to-so obviously who ever is building the th-400 dont know what there doing

Gerry,Have you ever raced anything other than a T400? if yes,what was it and how much power behind it?

its all personel preference -those who wanna run the glide do -c6 what ever -i love my th-400 and would never run anything else unless i step up power then i will switch to a glide

well with my bbf ive never ran anything other then a 400

How many full passes were actually made during those three years?

ive got about 100 plus- and 400 plus miles

I will say that the bolt holes on that T400 are mighty stout as many times as its been unbolted...................

yeppers -race car man - with your slow ass high compression junk race car

I had a c-6 in my car as well before I decited to make the swap to a glide. everyone and I mean EVERYONE I talked to that had made the swap on there cars said they picked up .3 tenths to .....5 tenths from the swap alone. Thats the differince of a 10.30 to a 9.80 in some cases. thats a big e.t. change for making no more horsepower. it's not about is ford better then chevy at this point. it's just plain old common cents. Do you want to go fast or do you want to go faster. the faster answer is a glide. the cheaper answer is a c-6 . the bastard answer is a th 400. pick your nose or pick your poison. Your going to feel like a jack ass when the th 400 does not hold up like you think it will. But It's not impossable. theres a boosted 2jz supra at my locale track that runs low 8's with a th 400. but by the time you build the trans, make a adapter plate, sfi flexplate,converter and both of the shields you may be spending a couple of extra bucks again

you guys dont make any sense

I have nothing against th400's or any chebby trans but what these guys are picking about at are some of the things you have said. a "stock $1200" trans, that doesn't make sense. You have never ran another trans in your car so you are comparing apples and well nothing else.

Just as I did when people were telling me that I was asking too much for my last trans for sale on here, just ride off into the sunset and don't worry about defending yourself.

Good answer, you are the only one you have to please, "MERRY CHRISTMES ALL"

"just ride off into the sunset and don't worry about defending yourself. "



........in the slowest C headed 600" "street car" I have ever seen...............

I would like to let you know that I had a C6 that was built a few years back and had every intention of using it in my car.Have seen them perform and they are STRONG as HELL! My brother used one in his first combo till the converter ate itself! And they are HEAVY!

He then went to the glide saved on weight, better times,little less to build !

T400 I would really look at all the extra that your gona do to use it over the C6, C6 is direct bolt in . Glide you have to cut the bell off or use a n adaptor but save a bit of weight? T400 you will have to do the same as the glide plus have it built and have almost the same weight?

Like I said I was going to use my C6 till one day here a few weeks back a guy called me and wanted to do a straight up trade! I thought he was jokin at first but he's a through and through FORD guuy who bought a Ranger with a Big Block in it and a Glide, he was to trilled with the idea of the Glide! So he contacted me and we made the deal happen, with him payin the freight on his and me on mine. Mine was a local build and had T brake and deep pan with a 4500 converter. The Glide when I got I was blown away, it is the JW case and the JW bell also with Tbrake and deep pan also with a 4500 stall! I am going to have it all checked out but I got what I wanted to go with as I have seen how the change worked in my brothers truck. Just alittle food for thought!!!!

rickster as usual your an ass and have no clue - so go work on your gutted out race race with big compression and large roller and trailer it to the track -while i drive my slow ass 9.30 car to the track and by the way it looks better then your pile as well

I have a clue, and as for high compression............the motor I had that is faster than your other one was not high compression......and it had stock configured cyl heads..............and a glide.

Your not even picking up where I left off.............. I can drive my 02 explorer down the street btw............

well rickster back to subject pm me if you wanna continue this -im game for what you can dish
