Im getting the cores from my buddy, I'll let u know once I have them and figure out what they are.
they are good for roundy round cars lol. Prolly work good in somethin with 5.13's or higher in the mud... ==dunno
thay do not work in 4x4. to heavy. now if you where talking rail or really light 4x4 with big power thay will.
i put one in my truck and it seems to be better geared than the 350 that was in it
I don't know if its all power glides but the one that used to be in my dads old race rail the reverse gear was equal to 3rd gear and if you harp on it too much in reverse it will burn them up but that might have just been the one he had so don't quote me on that
from what ive read up on em the low gear band is applied in reverse so it would be the same ratio in low or reverse
must have been the one we had was different or we got some bad info becuase my dad was going to put it in his new bogger but was told it was a higher gear band se he didnt use it good to know now

Power glides have to gear ratio's for low, 1.76 and 1.82.... The 1.82 came behind cars with V6's and motor's with less power....
pre 71 models have a rear pump that lets you pull/push start pretty much all parts can be interchanged 63 to 72
