Re: Trans brake Ford C6?
 
My last pass with the c6 in my Torino; Tried to stage the car, it rolled foreward about 6 inches and turned on the red bulb. When the brake released I made it to about the 800 ft mark and smoked all the forward clutches. I clicked neutral and rolled to the turn off at old Gateway. (Witch is a long way from the old road course pits.) I only had reverse; so I drove that fastback car 1/2 mile backwards all the way back to the pits.
That was with a fresh trans. and a brand new Hipster brake. I called them on Monday, I forget the gentleman's, name but he said to cut that c6 brake in half, because he was sending me his best brake for a T-400 a adapter plate to bolt the trans to my motor.
A tab was welded to my crossmember and a new shifter installed. A trip to the driveshaft shop; It looked like that big turbo belonged under there. Drag racing got a all lot more fun after that.

Thanks guys....This car will be a high 11second car @ best & just a "bracket" car. He would like to run S/ST some day but has a 63 Comet to put the 428 in to do that!
