tran swap
as long as youve got a short tail 350 an the braket for the kick down cable at the carb should be no problem, but this more than likely is gonna not change your final rpm s in drive if it does at all it would not be enough to notice, you my want to find a 700r4 and cut the drive shaft and asome other mods to the trans for shifting and lock up

Re: tranny swap
Guillermo... Why are you getting rid of your 454 for a small block?

Re: tranny swap
I have heard that the 2004r is a better choice than the 700- thev ran 200 's in those turbocharged buick grand nationals.
they have a lower 1st gear, and are the same size ,shape as a turbo 350. I just havent met anyone who has used a 700 and been super succesful- lots of $$$ and lots of problems, were the three instances I have expierenced. |
