kris, thats a really good idea ill definetly think about doing that. will that tranny bolt right in?
Yes and no. Unlike the TH350/400, it has a more complex cable for controlling pressure (as opposed to just kickdown/detent) so you need brackets for that and its not a bad idea to have a shop setup the pressure with a gauge for longevity of the transmission. It also needs a small wiring clip for the automatic TCC lockup, I think summit sells a kit for $39. Otherwise, its the same bolt pattern as SB/BBC but I think that the flexplate pattern is different for the 700r4 TC than the TH350 TC. Length is different too, might need to have your driveshaft shortened (or take the opportunity to move to a 1-piece)
