Transmission Question

Hey, I'm thinking of throwing an automatic transmission in here with a full manual valve body. Possibly the 700R4. Has anyone done this? What kind of transmission? Thank you.

Why would anyone want to do this? If you want an Auto you should get a TBSS

To answer your questions though - I've never heard of anyone doing this to a V
Better for racing, more fun

Thankyou. Do you have any idea why it wont fit. I'm not expecting a direct bolt-in, but if it wont fit because of different length driveshaft, bellhousing stuff, that's not a problem.
I think he means 1/4 mile racing BIG, not running laps.

TheKid - I think this has been discussed a few times and it was decided that there was no capable trans that was small enough to fit.

There definitiely have been others interested, but to this day no one has succeeded. Actually, I don't think anyone has actually done anything besides take measurements, then stop when they decided that there wasn't enough room.

I don't know which of the dimensions were the problem.
Just searched and it looks like the trans tunnel is not tall enough and it would require A LOT of cutting to get one in.
TheKid - empty your PM box.
Apparently the tunnel is to small for the auto. Mines gutted, I'll get a pic of the engine compartment and tunnel.
Damn security token errors!

I really appreciate the help thank you. Anyone know which automatic tranmission is in the slow cts? Maybe i can throw a valve body in that and throw it in.

Doesn't the V have the exact same body, to accept the automatic tranny from the reg. cts?
