If you can scare up a turbo 400 - it's a hella better tranny. B&M make a whole truckload of stuff for a T-400...

I agree with that wolf but TH400 are hard to find around here.

I wish it was that easy but a chevy bolt pattern on a TH400 won't bolt up to a Pontiac engine,it would have to come from a BOP (Buick,Olds,Pontiac) for it to bolt up the bolt patterns are different. Too Bad they didn't make that interchangeable with a chevy

You kiddin' me....

Is this like the damn POC (Piece Of Crap) MAZDA five speed in my four cylinder Ranger, to where it don't fit nuthin' else?

I thought ALL GM parts fit ever dang thing they made in their line - whattell is the point of making it that hard to do?

PS: Good to see you! I hope you havin' a DANG GOOD OLE DAY!

I am having a good day I hope you are. Even some of the dist are a little shorter than a chevy so it won't fit a chevy but might work in a Pontiac.

A PONCHO can be made way better by takin' it right back to chevvy with a wire feed and a grinder and saws-all.

- So I have found!

Gitcha some GITTY-UP, it ain't that hard.

LORD KNOWS the chevvy punks will RUE THE DAY when I turn my hands back to chevrolet parts just to show them what I can do with it...

They are dusted and broke Camaro's and Firebirds falling out of peoples pockets around here

That's why I like it same size weight and mostly same shape as a NOVA but with Poncho goodies instead of chevies which I have 2 of a 85 and 86 Caprices thinking about doing a TBI conversion on the 86 just to see what the 305 will do as far as power and gas mileage.I hope to have my Explorer in Nov with a 351W and a Toploader 4 speed. I'm ready to beak out of this wheelchair once and for all.

I guess it will be a long road back but I have so much to keep me busy I won't have time to think about it.

FOR OTR:

THE ROAD

We get a load on, and just roll with it
Ain't no stopping now, it is what it is
Sometimes the brakes bad, and then again
Sometimes the driveshaft just go SPANG!

Still and all, we just git it on down the road
Because we know the road
And I reckon the road knows us too...
So we just gitter on down the line
