FTI Performance Bracket Series Powerglide Level 5 Transmissions BPG5

Part number BPG5 tops FTI's Bracket Series Powerglide lineup in this group of listings: freshly built rather than remanufactured, and cleared to handle up to 1,500 horsepower, it is built around an aftermarket aluminum case rather than the OEM-style housing used on FTI's lower Powerglide levels. What is inside First gear is geared at 1.80, turned by an ER100 input shaft, with a billet steel clutch hub and a 4340 output shaft hardened for strength. SFI 4.1/ 30.1 certification covers it for competition, the valve body runs full manual with its trans-brake built in, and the deep aluminum pan stretches out to an 11.250-inch tailshaft. What is not part of this listing This is a new, individually sold unit rather than a kit, so a torque converter, transmission fluid, and a dipstick are not included and need to be sourced on their own; it is also not lockup compatible, which fits its dedicated drag-racing design. Q: What makes this different from FTI's other Powerglide levels? The 1,500-horsepower rating and the ER100 input shaft, paired with the aftermarket case, mark this as the heaviest-duty Powerglide build in this particular group of listings. Q: Is this suited to a street car? Its full-manual valve body and built-in trans-brake point to dedicated bracket or drag racing rather than daily street use.
