powerglide or 80e
powerglide or 80e ive been debating making my stock 6spd car into an auto due to the recent changes in build. im going to be running an f1r in a 98 fbody forged internals in a 6.0 with ported l92s stock weight with 3.42 gears sees almost all street/cruise night miles some street racing. would a glide be better or an 80e? some other car guys suggested a glide. if i were to go glide what converter would be best or is there a better option for the set up also budget is a concern as is with everyone in this economy. really looking for whats worked for others and what hasnt i dont wanna blow through the tires everytime i wanna do a hard launch but i dont wanna have the rpms way high while im cruising down the hwy or in town either

I honestly wouldnt be able to put it in myself :c I dont have a lift, if it cant be achived with a 2-ton jack then i cant do it ahaha. if i wasnt in highschool still id take a week off and shoot out there to you. unless some locals here want to help us out with this swap
I was in the same boat as you are and I was torn between a 80e or a Th400 ( mainly due to the price) and I rulled out the TH400, reason is I wanted to drive and enjoy it and not have a trailer queen. And from there I was in between a 80e and a T56 and I went with a T56 due to I like to row my own gears but a 80e is a good choice as well there is jake's in Sanger,Texas that I would have gone with they do a turn key job for 4200 I think i'm not sure you will have to get with them and see. I went with Texas Drive and Performance and Jason and Fabian did a real good job on my stage 3 Tranny and clutch. You can do a cheap 80 swap look up 72camaro he has a thread on how to do it and I think he had maybe 2,000 into his and he did it himself and I think he was putting down 750 RWHP I think i'm not 100% on those numbers.
