That's right, I saw the video when they ran Eights.

Their 500 with the Automatic has a Twin Turbo kit too, I think.

Does that radiator look familiar to anybody? They based that transmission cooling radiator off of my radiator design. I'm actually thinking of putting one on my car to keep the tranny temps down for the road course. Just needs a pump and tubing.

GT500 trans
Cool project but I don't think a trans than can handle 700 ft/lb convertor out would last long....assuming it's a standard ratio T/C of 2:1 (or even a 1.7:1) T/C output torque on one of these with mods is going to easily be in the 900 range...maybe with a stock engine it would live a while...

Besides...why would anyone want a reason to be able to let their girl drive their car?

Watch out VK, some of the ladies around here can handle a GT500 with the 6-speed too.

There were quite a lot of autos with the big blocks. I've seen a couple of auto GT500s, and I didn't get a picture of the inside but the Cougar Elimiator with the Cobra Jet had an auto on it too.

Here's one thing to remember: Autos never miss a gear on the 1/4 mile .

Well I'm the quilty party for putting the automatic in my GT500. Thats my site showing the install. Im a drag racer, thats why the change. Most run autos at the strip for many reasons. 4200 miles on it so far and no problems. Keeping my fingers crossed. I guess mine is lab rat to see how it holds up.
