       4  SPDs  are  a  blast  to  drive , but , if  you  wanna  be  consistent  at  the  DRAG  Strip  you  better  have  a ,"GLIDE".  Since  3.89  is  the  "TALLEST "  gear  you  can  get  for  a  "Vair" , you  gotta  do  some  mods  to  get  the  car  to,"ROLL OUT" [ you have to mod the  car for Road Racing too]. Still, ... you  will  be  a  winner  with  the ,"Glide" [it  just  won't  be  much  good  for  anything  but 1/4  mile].

Well, sure, but imagine how much faster it'd be with a 4 speed!

John, 
Wonder what kind of "calendar" Billy Bruce uses for his PowerGlide 1/4 
mile runs?????

Indeed!   I think you time Powerslide cars down the 1/4 mile with a 
calendar...

You just need to rewire   your brain as your left foot will be pawing 
for 
the 
clutch   pedal.

Hi Everyone, 

1965 Monza 

So the bell housing, diff and   trans have been changed. I have the 
automatic 
instrument panel ready to   go in. 
What else needs to be done to complete the change over. I'm at work   
and 
my 
manuals are at home. 
Other than the neutral safety switch,   back up lights. Any other 
wiring? 

Many Thanks in Advance for   advice. 

Regards, 
Eric
