Hello guys, the stock transmission died at 18psi so now we are taking it seriously we decided to try the 2 speed powerglide that will hold 1300hp.

 

I will let you know the results once we have the back running.

My 235 also died under dyno at 35psi. Where you using stock s2000 gearbox? Your new powerglide will be great. Did you fab the adaptor plate?

We were using the stock ap2 transmission with a twin Disc clutch, we already knew it won’t hold but we tried to make it last. ATF made the adapter and custom build the transmission.

Read through all 4 pages.  What a great project.  Sounds mean also for a turbo car.  

 

Not sure about the power glide direction compared to a manual trans.  I guess if u are drag racing well fair enough.

The Powerglide may be able to handle 1300HP, are you sure it can handle 9000 RPM.

No amount of skill or education will ever replace dumb luck

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
