Re: what tranny to use ?

a TH350 can be built to take anything a normally aspirated small block has to offer and has less parasitic drag than a TH400.

But if your going to use a blower or turbo(s) to get it up and over 700 hp or something, then a TH 400 or a powerglide would be your best bet

If you score the LT-1 --- the best transmission for it is the one it comes with, as i would probably not buy one of these stand alone
