i have a 1984 trans am it has a 700r4 trany in it i would like to replace it with a 350 turbo is it possable to change them out or would i haft to put a nuther 700r4 in it

 

yeah you can put a th350 in your car, should bolt right up to the block, but unless you're dragracing why not just put a rebuilt 700r4 on?

 

i am turning my trans am into a street strip car

p.s the reason i ask is because my uncle is a machanit and he said that the tail in to short to bolt up

 

No, you'll need to change a few things...I been down that road. I just ended up buying a high performance 700R4 for 1,200. If I would have bought the t350, It was going to be over 1,400 with the tranny and all the mods that would have had to be done.

You would need a different driveshaft (You would need to get your re-length)
You're cross member will need some work
you'll need to buy the conversion kit...I think It was like $132 at summitracing

 

Not to mention U-joints and having to get your driveshaft balanced...Dude, just buy another 700r4...there expensive, but they give you the extra gear, and somewhat better gas mileage.

 

you know where i can get a high performance 700r4

 

Just call your local shops, and tell them you want a rebuilt 700r4 with a shift kit and a high stall speed lockup converter. if you want to spend money one your credit card...Summit Racing - High Performance Car and Truck Parts | 800-230-3030

 

the sad thing is i just found out that i haft to rebuild a rebuilt engine in this T/A the engine only had 41 miles on it

 

jegs, or summit

 

what happened that the engine needs to be rebuilt?

 

i have a rod knocking we though it was the timming cause the timming was off but myuncle was able to time it with out a timming gun or anything kinda flippedme out but i forgot he has been rebuilding cars since he was 12

if any of you have yahoo or aaim drop me a line my aim is saliger64504 and my yahoo is missouri_guy64504

 

yeah you can time an engine just by hearing the rpm's

 

now to a different subject why wont my car move not sure whats wrong with the trany i mean it shifts fine but it just dosnt move forword verry good and it wont make it up a car ramp the guy i bought it from said he had the trany rebuilt any ideas of what it could be

 

umm, well it's broken lol i dunno you would have to ask someone who knows more, could be a problem with the torque converter

 

well i think i found the problem of y the trany was acting funny i had to replace the raidiator in it and had to unhook my trany cooler and it drained the fluid for the trany well i forgot to feel it back up afteri hooked everything back up

 

well that would do it.
