    350 turbohydro

     



    Well, I'm not an automatic transmission guy at all...much prefer the 5 speeds but I'm building the 'maro for resale and going to be using a big block probably built to the 450-500 horse level....

    My question is this, can I get away with using a TCI or Hughes street/strip type 350 in the car if I keep the gross weight of the car below 3,000 pounds??? I suppose I would be better off with a 400 hydro, but they are so big and heavy I would much prefer the smaller and lighter 350 if I can get away with it.....

    Wondering what you guys thought....

    PS--Oh yeah, it's gonna have a big block for an engine....
