N/A is naturally aspirated and yeah I know that a 0.030 over 350 is a 355. I wasn't refuting anything that you have stated.
Still can't wait to see this thing run! And a BB would just be even more sweet!

Why do people switch to powerglides? I thought the more gears, the better to keep it in the rpm range. But I have heard of many people switching to a powerglide. Is there something that they do better than other trannies or is just preference?

RE: spib's drag blazer
Powerglides can be made to be more efficient and can handle more power than a th350 or th400. Not to mention that in the 1/4 mile, depending on gearing, you really don't need extra gears. If you have a wide enough power band, you can get by actually better with less gears (less time shifting).

A glide is excellent for drag racing, leave on a trans brake at 5000-5500 rpm have a 5500 convertor, launch,pull to desired shift point, shift to high gear and off we go. In drag racing you want to turn the same numbers and times, round after round, they are tough, and if light enough will go damn fast. For a street rig a glide sucks, with small torque convertor, and high gears, but with a drag car, you will see a lot of glides!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks great! How much longer until it's all buttoned up and ready to take a pass?
