700R4 swap question
Ok I know that my questions have been asked alot on here and I did search before posting this, but I'm just trying to get a real estimate.
First off here are my specifics(all of them): 355SB Edlebrock performer intake (NOT the airgap) Edelbrock 1406 Carb Edelbrock Performer cam Edelbrock Adapter plate (1") 16"x4" Air cleaner Corvette aluminum heads (58cc chambers) KB Hypereutectic Pistons (apx. 10.9:1) Stock rods and crank Flowtech Afterburner headers 2.5" Exhaust with Summit turbo mufflers 33" tires 3.73 gears with open diffs 4" lift SWB TH350 w/NP208 TCI tranny cooler 5260Lbs on the scales With this set up I get about 9-12MPG in town depending on my foot and traffic. On the highway I can get 13-16MPG and its normaly 15MPG at 55mph (2200rpms). I am switching my TH350 and NP208 for a completely rebuilt 700R4 and NP208(they have no miles on them). I am buying a 2000-2600 stall lock up converter for it. I would like to hear what you think my gain in milage will be and if there are any mods I need to do to fit this setup; shorten driveline, kickdown adapter, ect. I plan to buy an electric fan for it when I do the swap to help boost the economy a little. Any and all input is greatly appreciated. Thomas Last edited by sav300; 03-28-2010 at 07:11 PM. |
