    I couldn't make it fit with the linkage an all.. We ended up with a blanket. I have a new one here that is out of the SFI date if your interested.

    If you run the 200, Art Carr had them. I run a 400 and use a TCI

    They are a pain we did one on my Buddies stage Car and had to trim a section out of it to clear the linkage (Not sure that keeps it in spec But Ya know) He has not had any issues at our local track though. :) Blankets are great as long as you dont drive on the street! they hold the heat in the trans bad. I had one on my Chevelle and burned up a trans in 80* Weather will never use one again on a street car.
    Grumpy did you get the Shield to work on your car?

    You may not. it was the Texas art carr that closed that had them. So you will have to dig up and see, or call the Real Art
    Carr and ask.

    NO I didn't . We had a track rental the next day so we just put a blanket on it.. We never had a problem driving 1000's of miles on the street with it. We do have a good trans cooler also.
    ... Art Carr sells the shields :cool:

    Mike does it matter if you have a deep pan on a TH400 for these shields to fit ?

    Not with the one I had. My brackets were fabbed up off of the pan bolts. I didn't do the bracket that runs across the pan. Just makes installation easier when playing Shade Tree mechanic on your back in the garage.;)

    The shield I had was the "real" Art Carr. The thing was a POS. Had to cut a hole for the servo and make a bracket for the linkage.

    not legal here either. But what are you supposed to do when it will not go on any other way? No one ever got under the car to look any way.
