To the guys barking tires into 2nd, what motor specs are you guys running?
On my 84 GMC (avatar) I am running a 385 stroker motor with a Comp Cams roller setup. The 700R4 has a 2400 stall converter (non-lockup) and it is feeding a 3.73 posi geared rear end. My daily driver is a 91 Silverado, with a 350 and 3.42 posi rear end gears. The 700 R4 in it has an updated lockup converter from "Precision of New Hampshire" http://www.gopnh.com/. Both trucks have had the trannys rebuilt with the heavier duty planetaries and sun gears, larger clutch packs, corvette governors, and the valve bodies built with the larger sonex valves and heavier duty shift kits. These trannies both will shift hard from first to second and very solid, quick shifts from second to third. I have a friend that is very good at his work in the transmission world.
