Default Well some changes to the plans

Like them but don't like them.really did not want to do it but after talking to a few people i am going to try it not getting rid of any of my harness just in case i want to go back.i have a friend that works with BTE and after priceing all the parts and stuff i have a 350th coming with trans brake,and a 3500 stall.manual valve body and all billet inside.don't know if i will have to cut the drive shaft are not but we will soon see.
really this is the last thing i really wanted to do but it is done.
i have almost all tha is needed just waiting on a set of heads and cam and put it all together.

any reason for a 350 instead of a 400? I thought that the 400 was a stronger trans. Well good luck with everything.

The TH400 is a stronger trans. But if i rember right it does not hve overdrive. It is just a 3 speed. Maybe that is why.

Different ratios too. Keep us updated on the progress; I'm interested to see how this turns out.

350 has a lower first gear, and takes alot les power to turn. just like the 4l60 and the 4l80, 60 has lower first gear but 80 takes alot of power to turn
