New Best

After adding an 830 Holley without any improvement, we went back to a 750 DP and ran an overall best of 7.18 in 1/8th mile. This was with 29.5 tall tires and 4.30 gears.

We also lost the use of third gear, shift and it may connect after a long wait. Are there any th-350 troubleshooting sites?

Pull your tranny oil pan off and look for parts in the bottom first. You may have blow the intermediate sprag.
