Default Guys with powerglides, are you using stock case?

also what kind of weight are you working with? what kinda of power?

Debating if I should build a pro glide with aftermarket case or try a stock one.

Mikes Transmission Stock Case, $1300 glide.. The guys over at Mikes said I can go easy 7.9s or so with the stock case and not even the Vasco upgrades. Ive gone 5.xx a few times with my glide with a CSR scatter shield and a neal chance 'verter. My race weight is about 3500 or so.

a stock case will take ya into the 7's @ 3300 lbs without too much worry....and a stock gear set gets unreliable around mid to low 8's @ 3300 lbs. just saying what ive seen.
