4x4 swap Good deal??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

kenny_strong · 08-20-2009, 11:25 AM

I have a 66 chevy with a junk 203 transfercase and a TH350. I was thinking about upgrading to a 700r4 and a 205 but I found this on craigslist. Think its a good deal? Will the blazer gas tank work on my truck so I can junk the one behind the seat?

Think there is bed supports in the way for mounting that tank.. And 700r4+205 is a sweet setup... Not sure Ide pay 600 but I have a vast selection of parts here in cali... Are you sure its a 205 rather than a 208? Ive only seen 700r4 paired with 208's from factory but Im no expert and maybe way out of line even saying that...

Thats a 208 not a 205.

Thought those ridges on top looked strange..

My guess is you could pull the trans, t-case, crossmember and drivelines, put your 350 and bad 203 in the chassis and still sell it for 600 bucks.

600 is way high. You can find alot better deals on what you want to do.

I have been watching the local craigslist for a fair priced 700r4 and a 208 to replace my Th350-NP203. I would love to have another gear since my truck has 4.11s. I saw your ad but I would like to get away from the boat anchors (NP203/NP205) Any idea what a good turbo 350 is worth?

Just glad someone said it before me. An 87 has a np208, not a 205.

Also, the price is too high, but see what they will come down to if you really want it.
