Powerglide is INSTALLED.
^ all these old 'Vettes I work with everyday have the old 3 speed autos (t400) and 4-spd sticks....
They tach high rpm just driving around... Driving a '66 Corvette with a 4 spd and 4.11's turning 3,600 rpm just keeping pace with traffic for a few exits on the interstate. Plain stupid.
The t-56 has me spoiled. I took for granted how much an overdrive transmission saves on wear and tear. (RPM)

Steve..... no sense in trying to talk sense to the young and the furious.
They know more than us old ******.... they've done more than us old ******, and they've done it better than us old ******
Funny thing.... they couldn't turn the on TV w/out a remote, and think anything w/out OD and AC is a "race car"
I loves kids
They tastes like chicken
