Not for the GMC, for the 57 BelAir on the trailer behind it. Do any of the gearheads out there know of an adjustment on the OUTSIDE of a cast iron powerglide that will eliminate second gear slippage? I don't want to take it out, and the PO said it has already been rebuilt about 10 years ago and has only traveled about 200 miles since then.

Is there anything I can do to the TH425 in the GMC to get less slippage on takeoff from a dead stop? Sure seems to be wasting a lot of engine torque. Not looking to burn tires, just a better connection to the front wheels.
