i got a mega buck hughs 400 tranny built specifically for off road racing attached to a hurst shifter. yeah yeah its old skool and so am i. its a frigging SCORE LEGAL CLASS 8 chevy(chebbie), thats still competitive in its class.

no stone left unturned on it. built ground up by hughs here,with extended pan for more quart capacity and a mega electric fan tranny cooler.


i beat that damn tranny senseless, anywhere,anytime,any condition all the way to redline behind a built to the hilt 383 STROKER!



total obnoxious ABUSE off road. downshift into 1st from drive to slow it down and then red lined thru 2nd into drive. back and forth all damn day.

NEUTRAL? what the hell is that? "N" = GOING NOWHERE "R" is for RACE REVERSE!


"P" is for parked, we are drinking BEER! or fixing a FLAT!


i have owned that damn thing 12 years now. run TYPE "F" FORD(furd) fluid in it because it has a HIGHER BOILING POINT than dexron.



it has been to baja countless times now(literally) and has never failed. no matter what the trail condition or load or 124 degree ambient outside temps in june at the 500 down in laguna salida baja norte. aka below sea level.
