Respectfully disagree Dragsix, about the only bad info I have seen you give. I have rebuilt many of these aluminum models and cant say anything redeeming about them, sorry. They have the lasting ability of a 16 year old boy on his first date.

Had one of these pos in my factory cosworth vega and it couldnt even take the torque of a 140 cu inch (115hp)four cylinder motor. Complete junk transmissions that one should think twice about before putting in their stove-bolt truck.
