No simply put 2 speed powerglide= 2 gears a 700r4 has at least three and some have overdrive.
Chevrolet & Pontiac were the only brands to use to Powerglide. The rear engine Corvair used a modified Powerglide. Pontiac used a similar transmission in the Tempest although it was called a TempesTorque'. Some sources claim Pontiac and Oldsmobile used the older, cast-iron case Powerglide when the Hydromatic transmission plant burned in '53. Most if not all Pontiacs of the '60's and '70's that have a two-speed automatic transmission do NOT have a Powerglide; they have a Turbo-Hydramatic model 300 transmission; also used by Oldsmobile.
If you have a 2 speed Powerglide A/T use Dexron 3 or a Synthetic.
The 2 speed Powerglide was the only automatic trans available for the Chevelle in 1965.
It can have either the standard 3-speed manual transmission, the optional 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, the 4-speed manual wide-ratio transmission available with the first two power plants, and 4-speed manual close-ratio transmission available with the top two power plants.
It doesn't have a band adjustment.
about $700 if it's in good shape.
No its a 2-speed Automatic. Loved by drag racers.
To check the transmission fluid in a Powerglide two-speed transmission, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is running. Locate the dipstick, usually found near the back of the engine, and remove it. Wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the fluid level, which should be within the marked range. If the fluid is low, add the appropriate type of transmission fluid through the dipstick tube.
