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....Last edited by Dave Severson; 02-10-2008 at 05:41 PM.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
