transmissão automática ou hidráulica Explanation: Racing With A Powerglide Automatic Transmission Slush pumps, idiot boxes—the automatic transmission gets called some mean names in racing circles.

Aluminum-bodied Powerglides were produced between 1962 and 1973 (a cast-iron version was also produced, but nobody wants them for racing). It’s easily the most popular in circle track and drag racing. People pay anywhere from $50 to $250 at a junkyard nowadays just to obtain a beat-up one. If you’re looking, target old Chevy IIs, Chevelles, Camaros, Pontiacs, and some GM trucks for Powerglide transmissions. The first generation of Powerglides (1962-’65) have pump gears on the rear support. The ’66 to ’73 Powerglides are considered better because the pump gears are located at the front of the transmission, which is the preferred location. Race car builders often consider the Powerglide first because of its light static weight, strong build qualities, and rela-tively low rotational mass. A typical Powerglide often weighs about 100 pounds (plus or minus 10 pounds, depending on the equipment and whether it has a direct-drive pump or a torque converter). Comparatively, a three-speed manual Muncie or Saginaw transmission can weigh 30 to 40 pounds more than a direct-drive Powerglide when the flywheel and clutch are included. Lightening those transmissions, combined with the expense of a racing clutch, make the Powerglide an economical winner in many cases. http://www.circletrack.com/techarticles/98598/index1.html |
