Post subject:  Auto Tranny Adapter Plates?

I talked to a couple of offline (e.g. "Computers are the work of the devil...") slanters at a local tranny shop last weekend. They asked if anyone had adapters yet for running other trannies. I explained the stock mopar adapter to allow use of an "LA" block Tranny (904,727,500,518,998,999,etc...). One guy was very interested in an adapter for a slant to a Chev 700R4. I thought a while back someone had adapted a Powerglide to a slant for draggin'
Does such an adapter exist? Are they willing to machine another unit?

thanks, gotta get these guys on line (they're missing out!!!!!)

Mark Good man is the only one I know of who has done this, his team put a Powerglide behind a SL6

This is "one-off" custom machining, I do not know of anyone offering this type of adaptor as a catologed / p/n item.

I kind of expected this. I thought he might have patterned a spare (always good to have two of an "experimental item"...)

I'll just tell the guy if he wants to go that route to take an A-904 slant housing and his 700R4 to a machine shop...

thanks doc, really appreciate it.

My slant six FED has a mid-plate made to adapt the slant to powerglide. I believe Mark Goodman made mine for Dick Weber (prior owner). It uses a TCI mopar SB to 'glide flexplate kit, with one hole in the flexplate moved.
I am in the process of copying the midplate in order to run a 904 (Slant version) instead of the powerglide.
