76 Auto Transmission
I need to replace my transmission and would like to know If any THM350 will work. I think it has 6 in output shaft. Also would like a 2200 lock-up. I have a new 350 HP proformer engine installed.

Have you thought about swapping to an overdrive transmission? You can order a complete kit with a high HP built trans an all the trimmings for around 1K if that's your budget. I'd suggest doing a search for the 200R4, and look into it's benefits.

Durango_Boy do you have a name of the company that has a swap kit for that 1K. I was going to do my own build up of a 2004r, but if I can buy one for around that 1K ready to go with all the change over parts I will go that way. Thanks
