Re: 71' suburban 4x4

Just throwing a suggestion out there. Go with a 47rh transmission. It is the the hydraulic version of the 47re which is a little weaker (factory built) than a 48re. You can find and build a very stout 47rh for around the same price of a 48re and the stand alone controllers.

I get 24mpg out of my 1st Gen 6bt with my built 47rh and 3.55 gears and 33's

Keep us posted on your progress. I love the 4bta.
