Ied like to ask a question about Automatics in drag racing.
Ok i dont know how in hell this works, i know ill need a custom driveshaft and custom toqure converter, but dave lemon of mazda trix told me you can take an 86 automatic bell housing and put a ford C4 guts inside up and grind out and clearence issues and redrill some holes, and add a b&m shifter system. has anyone done this and can give me a write up on it?

I know that you can bolt up a th350 with the proper bell housing, i have seen them for sale, but i dont know much about it. It seems like it would be killer for bracket racing,

are you swapping a manual to an auto on an N/A or hoping up an automatic on a TII? Because if it's an N/A the stock Auto tranny with a torque converter would be fine.
