Re: TH350 to TH400 Conversion, Swap

You bet that does help out quite a bit. Yeah I kinda figured I would get into spending quite a bit more money if I were to switch tranny's. I don't necessarily want to get into that. I am new in this area and will proabably have a hard time finding a good, trustworthy shop.

Spending that kind of money I could easily just rebuild my current tranny or buy an aftermarket tranny such as TCI or something a long those lines. So thanks for the good info!

Also i went on Classicperform.com and got the tubular crossmember they sell for around $80 you dont have to have it but it made the job easier. As far as crossmember location c10's already have holes to move the cross member back to hold the TH400. hope this helps.
