Hi guys-
so I just yanked the motor and trans on my 71 as both need rebuilding. To my initial dismay i found that I have an FMX trans (came factory with a C6). I've done some reading but want to ask here...
would you rebulid and keep the FMX or replace it with the correct c6??
From what I've read the main drags on the FMX are that it is very heavy and does not have much in terms of aftermarket performance support. However, it seems the c6 drains a lot more HP. The car has a 351C which I'd like to build to 400-450 HP.
Thanks for your advice/opinions
(also if anyone can help me ID the trans I'd appreciate it..... its cast D2AP700SAA and the tag appears to read PHB-E4 / D27FA M)
