727 W/ 904 internals

Mark,
It's a fact that they were using a modified chevy case, Why? I don't know and don't really care. I don't have to run them heads up so it doesn't concern me.
What does concern me is that GM and Ford racers get to do something Mopar racers aren't allowed to do. The JW bellhousing to bolt a 904 to a big block costs about $400, A protrans is $4000-$5000. It doesn't make sense.
How many GM racers have had to throw away a repairable case because of a cracked bellhousing? This would be a good fix for them also. If NHRA is going to let the Ford racers use an adapter then we all should get that option. Right?
