I kind of assumed it becasue I see so many cars that used to be P/G's with 3 speeds in them. No way these cars can launch as hard with a 'glide......

The 3 speed automatic deal to replace the P/G is for SUPER STOCK except in the case of the 57 thru 61 Chevy big cars in stock where the "turbo glide" was deemed a 3 speed thus allowing a turbo (400, 350, 200 metric) to be a legal replacement for those cars. IE: Captian Jacks U/SA 1960 283 station wagon. Its listed in the class guide but I didnt know that a turbo glide came in a 57 ???? I thought it came in the 58 to 61 cars. I guess its because the 58 Chevys came out in late 1957 (Sept.).
