Thread: good buy on a T-350

I believe a full throttle, valve floating nuetral drop would be an excellent strength test.

Excellent advise. I alway's preferred the reverse to drive though.

Haha, that's how the big j-hooks on the street are made??.

I remember back when the 56 Buick was pretty hot car. My buddy did that with the Dynaflow. It would switch the pitch and just slide backward for 20-30 feet then just cook the tires. Probably the first real burnout I ever experienced.

My brother had a friend years ago with a FuryIII we lived in the country and the roads were just layers of gooey tar over the pavement. He would get that thing going in reverse at about 20mph he would drop it into drive, the car would keep going backwards with smoke rolling past the front of the car after about 50' the car would start forward and come back through all the smoke with the back tires still doing a top fuel burnout. That is one of my fondest memories of my youth (remember I lived in the country) . Funny thing is if I saw a kid do that to an old car today I'd want to kick his butt.

Now back to the original point of this thread, I am pulling a T-350 out of my shed this weekend to put in my T it has been sitting for 7 years maybe longer.
I need more stall and have a converter for a t-350 so I figure it will be cheaper to see if it work's than going out and buying a new converter for my powerglide. I will let you know how it goes.
