Howdy,
So I'm doing a basic crate 350 (260 hp, alum manifold, 4 bl carb, headers). Nothing hotrod, just stability and a little extra torque for pulling a 19 ft vintage rv trailer with my 1959 Suburban. I really would like to pair an auto tranny up from the gitgo. Been reading a lot about r4700, 350, 400 trannys etc. I sure would appreciate some been there done that opinions on a good tranny to throw in the mix. Questions:
- easy to install functional tranny….. preferably with OD??
- best engine mounting methodology?
- I assume install an trans oil cooler…..
- Should I use a Lokar Nostalgia shifter?

Thanks!!!! Maddog
