I started another thread on the tranny conversion.  I started out looking at putting in a C4 but comments from several members make it seem like going to an AOD would be an even better bet.  I have heard you have to shorten the X bracing in the frame to make this conversion work.  Is this true?  Don't really like the idea of a permanent alteration to the car.

Hi Rex;  Talk to Gary at Bristol Trans.  Costa Mesa, Ca.  I talked to him in length and was very informative, did not mention  having to cut frame.  I'm in agreement , don't like cuting frame.  Just put Flaming River Rack and Pinion system in, also did not have to modify frame.   Good luck  and God Bless   Eddie

Just remember - if you don't do a lot of highway driving an OD will not do much good.
