Another Powerglide question

(1/5) > >>

Ponti:
Ok silly question time,

  I am sorry now if I keep asking stupid questions, just struggling to find info on the WWW.


 Obviously I have asked about shorty covers already in a seperate thread.

What I am trying to find out/ work out is..... Is it possible to convert an early Powerglide to a full manual but still keep the rear pump but loose the governor, so I could do push starts.

  Also what are the lengths of the shorty output shafts? I know there are meant to be different lengths.

 Box is going to be behind my SBC in my slingshot so no room for a full length tail housing

not sure if it will work with a transbrake or shorty kit

bikeguy307:
Well you could definitely go manual vb and still keep the rear pump, with no governor. This combo would still be longer than a standard shorty. What kind of over all length can you fit in your car?

jeff/21:
With the the kit for the circle-glide you don't need a rear pump it engages the low band

The distance I have is 86cm from the rear of the motor plate to the front of the axle case, I don't have the front of the 9" so I don't know its length.
