Re: what is the best transmission?

Those Gear Vendors units sure look neat, but for the $ you could probably be in for a 4L80E, and that's got everything above beat. I thought the NV4500 was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but in the last few years, the opinions seem to be souring somewhat from the folks who have used it for a swap. I've got an SM465 in my 77 that is a really stout piece, and I suspect a GV behind this would be pretty special. I think I'm going with a TKO 500 in my 64.
