[b-man]

Today the 4L70E trans and Yank SS3600 9.5" converter arrived from FLT. They were packaged together inside a nice plastic shipping container made especially for 2-way shipping of newly-built transmissions and trans core returns.

My old Chevy pickup always likes to be of service to my Pontiacs.



Looks just like I pictured it.



The always handy load leveler. It makes this kind of job so much easier, I'll never use anything else for engine and trans installation.



I made this one out of heavy-wall materials and had a friend at work TIG weld it all up for me. I won't use questionable Chinese stuff to hold up my new engine and trans, I've read about more than one of these things failing and injuring the user.



Nice attention to detail by FLT, a piece of cardboard taped to the bottom of the trans pan to keep it from getting scuffed-up during handling. I never knew they offered factory pans as deep as this one.



The old short-tail BOP Turbo 400 that I'm sending back to FLT for partial core credit.



The Tempest approves.



Thanks again to the folks at Finish Line Transmissions and Yank Performance Converters for delivering quality products exactly when they said they would.
