th200r4 tranny

[63chevystepside]

ok well found out the 2004r is a wek tranny. Found out the 350 and 400 use the same input shaft and when a powerglide is upgraded they put a 350 input shaft in it. With the 400 vs the 350 you'll lose a little on the gas mileage and yes they are a little stronger than the 350 but considering the conversion over to a 400 with having to go with a diff. yoke and having to have shaft rebalanced...the conversion from a 350 to a 400 is not worth it. The 350 can be upgraded to handle somewhere in the neigbourhood of 600hp and the input shaft can handle it esp. since that same shaft is used in a 400 which not a lot of people know and a 400 is rated around 400-450lbs of torque stock. Heard guys out at the vally are using 350 with that shaft...and doing wheels and 600hp and not breaking them. Heck what i know im not a tranny guy just going by hear say. I just am trying to gather my info before applying my knowledge...Sounds like i'll just have the 350 built and put a stall converter in it. Any input out there would be appheciated-all tranny guys don't have the same opion in this so id like to hear all sides-we all would. Please nobody be offended...

I called a tranny shop and they said the powerglide is a great tranny if your racing and that you have to go with diff rearend gears...i think i'll just have my 350 rebuilt...thanks and if i hear of anyone wanting a glide...i giv u a hollar. I do hav a younger bro building a rod so i'll mention it to him.

 

[batman]

tell him it is $500 for the truck and all trannys with it...depending on where you are i may deliver it for a fee....

Thats a deal-but i got 6 vehicles sitting out front now.-ask him about the 350 is it a lock up or reg. And if its been rebuilt with b&m stuff...and when rebuilt.

we dont know any of that..we just bought it the way it sat and got the other trannys for it just in case we wanted to build it...all we know is that it runs rough but we got new heads for the 350 and all the trannys...if i can come up with $500 i'll get it all and make a drag truck out of it..but i told him i would post it so i did...thats all i know...
