WTB: Chevy Turbo 350 tranny
 

I'm looking for a chevy turbo 350 tranny with short tail (with torque converter) to swap into a second gen camaro. Looking for something that works - doesnt need a rebuild, and doesnt leak like crazy.

My plan was for an OD conversion - but I wont get to that this year ... so looking for the quick/cheap fix instead.

700r4 would cost about the same or less only bump in price is I think you need a drive shaft cut 40 bucks you will save that in fuel in no time though

I actually have a 700r4 from an 85z (for the project). It was told I should use a 200r4 instead ... have to research that one ...

Local guy who has a th350, i think he said hed take 300 for it, no converter. has a forward manual valvebody it it, and has been dyno run to make sure it working and shifting good. hope this helps

the 200 is a good trans but I like the deeper over drive of the 700

If you already have the 700 just run with it. I've built cars with both and ran a 200 myself for years. Not enough difference to go shopping if you already have one over the other.

That's good to know, thanks. I might have so questions for you if you don't mind as I dive in ...

2004R is what you want, basically a turbo 350 with OD, came in the grand National and some early third gens, but like said above, if you have a 700 just build the hell out of it

Anything you want to know ask away.

I say TH400 but I'm biased..

That's because you haven't driven your across town, let alone across states lol.

Put some deep gears in the back and start taking it on lots of road trips. That 400 will be out real quick ;)

I know, I just meant over the th350.. lol

I wish internet could show sarcasm

That's what smilies a for :D

700R4 with hardened input and sun shell and your good for 400rwhp. No Drag Racing. a th350 in stock form or built up will handle more obviously. but why tackle the same project twice. throw the 700 in there. and wen its all set up and run right with it. get a junkyard 700 core and have a tranny shop go threw it locally and have a Decently built 700 for under a grand usually.

Why use a trans shop?

<----Has ATSG manuals! lol

cuz you dont have all the tools at home do you?!?!?! 700r4s arent easy. have rebuilt a couple in stock trim. and spent just as much cuz i had to have the input/pump teflons stretched/installed. and then have the 3/4 drum truned. all in all just better off Unless its your own personal tranny. have a shop do it, just my .02

Actually I have the installer for the teflons and I have access to a lathe to do the drum if need be.

Wow - I'd like to know where some of these shops are. Any of the shops around here in NY want to suck you dry. I cant carry in a th350 for less than ~1200->1500 (from the calls I've made). 700r4 is more.

I have a guy in nh but he'd be kind o a haul for you :)

ROADTRIP :)

I've got parts from pa, ma, car from ca - nh? Sure !

i can have a th350 BUILT!!!!!!! for 400 bux including parts to handle around 600 rwhp

^for real??? $400? I'm gonna build one of mine if thats the case lol.
