Can the th400 be mounted to the 230,250,292 engines? Thanks again guys. I gotta ask these things being new to inliners.

I would not use it on smaller than the 292. It is longer & uses a different drive shaft yoke so you would have to have the driveshaft modified.

They do use a more than twice the power a Turbo 350 uses.
The trick setup on a torque monster like a 292 might be a Powerglide. Very low power requirement and the motor would easily make it accelerate hard.

#68813 11/19/2006 2:58 AM | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 61 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 61 | Yes the Doug nash is expensive. I paid $900.00 for it and it was a good deal That is why i was considering the 770r4 as a replacement. I have used the 700r4 behind sbc in the past with great results. They must be adjusted at wot. I am considering pulling the 305 (IN GOOD SHAPE) and replacing it with a 250 (after i rebuild it) and the 700r4 trans. I could then sell the 305 and Doug/Nash overdrive to cover my cost. I`m just thinkin out loud guys Thanks for the input. Have a fun day tomorrow.
