I have had a PA FE to C4 bell ordered since June 30-2023. was told for months would ship Jan 30-2024, now moved back to May. I have a QuckTime and had to have it modified to fit the C4. Plus the QuckTime has very small access to work in. Have seen PA bell on ebay for 2X what I paid when I placed the order and yes, Jegs has had my money since June 30-2023.
Took several weeks to get PA to resond when the bell would ship after it did not ship in Jan

I have a wide ratio C6 from Broader in my thunderbird, ~500hp, I abuse it quite a bit, nice crisp gear changes, not great traction so I wouldn't call it hard use at all but no issues in 4 years.

I have his band and drums that are rollerized but I didn't want the low gear E4OD planet in my application back when I did my C6, I'll probably go light weight drum for the C6 this time around and skip the C4 for now when I convert back from manual 4 speed

Joe you may want to reach out to Doug Bender or Jim Macione on this. Doug had a Broader C6 in his Fairlane before he converted it to a 4 speed. I purchased the C6, never used it and sold it to Jim. I think Jim is running it in his 68/69 Torino Cobra clone. Also, quality control has dropped off considerably at Performance Automatic. I was disappointed by the state of their main repair shop in Maryland last time i visited. (It reminded me of an Hunts Point chop shop) I would reach out to Frank Lupo at Pro-Formance Transmission in Delaware on a C6 build. He is within driving distance. I am running one of his C4's in my Maverick and am extremely happy with it and their customer service.

I will give them a call on Monday Steve. It can’t hurt to get some info and I do like the fact that he is less than 3 hour away. I do have my tranny all boxed up to go to Broader but I definetly should at least call pro formance
