Hello, I just recently purchased a '71 Suburban. I'm loving it, definitely glad I found a good one. So now I am looking into what I can do to make improvements here and there. I'd like to possibly swap out the transmission and put in one that has more gears than the 350 in there now. Does any one have any suggestions of what to look for? I have been reading into it some and it seems like the easiest thing to do is to put in a 200R4. I've also read that some people are strongly against using that tranny. I've found 700R4 haters though too so I'm wondering if anyone has put one of these into a suburban since I have not seen anything mentioned about that swap specifically. I'm looking to do this with as little trouble as possible since this is my daily driver. It would be great to get it all done in one weekend. Any suggestions or help would be great!
