==Overview==
From the Powerglide's modest beginnings as a GM passenger car transmission, it has grown to be one of the most-used automatic transmissions for serious competition in history. In fact, the venerable GM Powerglide can be made without using a single OEM part and has probably been used behind more high horsepower engines than any other automatic transmission in existence.
