hi i have a 1990 iroc z came with no motor and no trans. i picked up a 350 small block and finally got it done. im guessing it has around 400hp and now i need to find a tranny. im wanting to go with a 700r4. i have called around to several local shops and none of them can rebuild me one because i dont have one to bring to them to rebuild. i dont feel like going to a junk yard and spending 100 dollars on one either. i would rather just buy one ready to go in. just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on where to buy one from?

 

No suggestions but there are companies out there who sell them outright with no core required

 

Generally, having a trans shipped will add $100 in shipping. Tough to come out ahead in this situation. If you get a core trans, be sure it's an '87-'92.
If you want to be sure of it surviving 400 HP and maybe nitrous, try www.700r4.com, look at their level 2 unit. Great trans, but their converters are crappy. I suggest a B&M Holeshot 2400. Then you need a way to lock the converter. I suggest the kit from PainlessWiring.

 

well thank you for your suggestions appreciate it very much

 

you bet.

 

im still open to any other suggestions......
