From a gear perspective, the 700 has a more aggressive 1st gear, which may work better with your 3.08s. The 200 would save you the cost of a cross member and driveshaft shortening though.

The beauty of the 200 is that no major mods are required. If you want to go back to the 350, no problem!

Hi French78,
Assume you're in Paris, France? If so, have you got any idea where to get a 200r4?

Go with TH200-4R. This is the better choice IMO.
TH700R4 has a big shift drop from 1st to 2nd gear.
TH200-4R doesn´t.
TH200-4R is easier to install.

I plan on buying one in a few years when my race engine will be completed.
