<VV> Powerglide

Forgive my ignorance, but how does turning a Powerglide upside down reverse
it's rotation?  I could understand rotating it 180 degrees in the horizontal
axis (would have to rig input and output, obviously).  I can also understand
turning the REAR AXLE upside down, but the Powerglide?????

Must be some ULTRA nonsense.
