You can also modify the trans oil pump to include a manually operated barrel
valve. The modification includes drilling and tapping the oil pump on the
pressure side. You run an AN fitting and hose to a barrel valve with the other
hose from the valve leading back to the trans. When the valve is open the
pressure doesn't build up. As you close the valve the pressure picks up and
the
car starts moving. You run a coupler from the crank to the trans and
eliminate the torque converter entirely. You slowly engage the valve to move
the car
like letting out the clutch on a manual car. All the IMCA roundy round guys
use this technique.
Speedway Motors carries the crank flange and coupler.
