    What supports run off the midplate for a direct drive powerglide transmission for dirt track racing?

    Powerglide 2speed tranny have been used for racing for a long time.
    Not really knowing what the Q,as it was not layed out well.
    I'll rambull some.

    Back in the late 1970s Winters Performance put out a kit to build your own for dirt oval racing.
    I got the kit and built my own,but I was racing on blacktop,not dirt,an my Latemodel Mod was making well over 400hp. So it took me 9 race weekends too redesign one to work on blacktop with big HP n 10in. wide rubber,brake it an fix next week point for 8 times.
    Something TCI never could do.
    The clutch pedal,I hooked to a 1/2in. ball valve,to control pump PSI that I made to 160. I redesign valve body and size of servo feed lines. The Winter's drive to replace T-C was the only thing not needing big mods. Even the alum PG case had to be reinforced. The drive was this design.

    Was that in the Retro-Encabulator or the Turboencabulator... or was that the Entabulator?
    It's been a while since I've surmounted my two spurving bearings... but that might be a personal problem.
