Which 460 etc do you have ?
What's the HP/TQ numbers ?
$3,500 bucks for your Richmond ?

1st gear is a parade gear, and 2nd gear starts are easy with a big block.
Mild build 460 - 400 HP / 500 torque.
$3,500 would be a current ballpark price - the transmission was in the car when I bought it in 2014, and the car was built in 1991. Roughly 25,000 miles on it.
