Will a TH350 mount up to a 250?

Yes...I have seen a few come from the factory that way, but not too many.

The late model sixes (194/230/250/292) use the same bellhousing bolt pattern as the V-8s, so yes, you can bolt up the TH350 to that 250.

YOU WILL HAVE TO CHANGE THE STARTER, MY 70 WAS DONE IN 2002.

AND YOU WILL HAVE TO CUT OUT THE REAR 3SPD ENGINE/TRANNY BRACE.

OH YEA, IT RUNS LIKE A SCALDED DOG NOW.

a buddy of mine had a 70 with the same setup from the factory and it was a smooth riding smooth shifting truck.

MY 82 has a 250/T350 combo. It's not too bad, although it does lack the umph my 250/3speed has. Some of that is the gears I'm sure. The 82 only has a 3:42 rear, while the 70 has a 3:73. As Dubie said though, it is a very nice combo.
