Go to your news stand and pick up April's issue of Hemmings Muscle Machines. Page 84 has this swap. They are using a 2004R and the tell you why they chose it over a 700. It's a 2 part series showing the installation in a Camaro. Also a good story about a 1969 COPO Chevelle restoration found in Georgia.

tb, Sorry I can't help you with anyone in the Dallas area as I'm in the Chicago area. If you are looking for increased mileage at least on the open road or expressways you might want to look into a cut out stall converter also. I can not speak from experience yet, but one of my friends has the 700R4 with the cut out stall converter and it increased his mileage he has told me from 16-19 miles per gallon to 26 miles per gallon on the open road. I'll be going to Automation in the Wisconsin Dells this May and will be more able to vouch for his statement after the drive from the Chicago area as I just had the same combination put into my 70 Chevelle.

First, does anyone have any suggestions on where in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area i should go to get an overdrive transmission purchased and installed. Should I go with the 700R4? Secondly, I ordered a new set of interior A/C vents and easily replaced the two center vents. However, how in the heck do I replace the two side vents?? Do I have to take the whole dashboard apart?
