   Not any more. :-)

   That is, if I were building a canyon carver, I'd probably use a
T-56 or something along those lines, but I'm fed up with sticks on
the drag strip. This buildup will have either a race built 727/904
tranny or something along the lines of a lenco or jerico. (The last
two being highly doubtful due to being quite expensive.)

   As long as I can tell it what gear to be in all the time, and
I can tell it when to shift (manual valve body?), gimme that auto! :-)

  Soo... Speaking of which... How does one pick the right torque
converter for their particular combo?
