Transmissiom
I just had a rebuilt turbo 350 installed at a shop and now when I put it in gear it brings the rpm all the way down and then stalls, I have idle up really high and does not fix the problem. Does anyone have ideas or maybe something went wrong at thetransmission shop?.

Re: Transmissiom
Take it back to them. Theres no reason an auto trans should stall an engine. Something isnt right internally.

Re: Transmissiom
I've rebuilt automatics before, especially 350's and 350C's. It sounds to me like the tranny shop accidently got a 350C converter on your 350. If there was a failure inside the trans itself and the tranny locked into every gear it had all at once, the eng should still run and not stall out. If they got a "C" type converter on a 350 it would stall OR,OR, they damaged (or forgot to install it) the rubber "O" ring on the input shaft it would stall. Either way, it goes back to the tranny shop with the question "how did it pass a road test and why did you release the truck to me if it wasen't right?" As a customer, I never would have taken it off thier lot in the first place. Keep us posted AND post the name of the shop so no one else has a problem. If they stand behind thier work, post that too.
