I’d like to hear opinions on who makes the best trans brake solenoid for a powerglide. Referring to fully enclosed units.This message has been edited. Last edited by: DLR,

Beware of the different "throws" for different brands. Hughes seems to have a longer throw than most.
I use a Hughes solenoid in my door car with a Hughes valvebody, and an FTI solenoid in my dragster with a BTE valvebody.
No problems with either.

Replaced my 1999 Coan with a FTI unit last year. I suspected a variance on the Coan but that hasn't proved true, it's the spare now. Over 3500 runs on it.
