what year was the 700R4 improved and not considered a "junk"
tranny any more???

some kids in school say 87
but others say 88


also, what was done to it to improve it???

the one in my 87 Z28 is in need of a rebuild.....if i rebuild it and beef it up in school what would a fair asking price be...........

 

Technically the 700R4 was changed several times. The first big change came in 87. If you're looking for the best 700R4 the factory offered, go for a 92 tranny.

Considering a professionally rebuilt 700R4 runs about $1000, from an individual I wouldn't pay more than $500... as for whats a fair price? well its hard to say.

 

thanx drew

i mite as well rebuild it

this way i can use it if i ever need it..............and if i want to sell it, it will be much easier in good shape

 

for a tranny like that....i would ask whatever you payed in parts plus like 50 or 100 bucks.
