I have a 700R4 in my tempest. 389 Tri-power 282/292 camshaft. The transmission was built by Gearstar out of Akron Ohio. They put all of the heavy duty guts in it. At the strip I have more torque than traction in 1st. So I must baby the gas to launch. Great street manners, and I am turning 2000 RPM at 70 MPH. I did put a manual switch in it to keep the torque converter lock-up from hunting back and forth when climbing hills.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
