1972 and 1982 TH350/350C Questions - Help Please!
Hey guys,
I am currently waist deep into a rebuild of my 1972 Turbo 350 that I plan to put in my 82 Trans Am. I have everything disassembled and cleaned and ready for re-installation. I recently also acquired a Turbo 350C from a 1982 Bonneville with a V8 350. I tore that one down real quick to compare the guts of the two. Most parts are the same, however, I did notice a few differences...things like the 350C uses needle bearings in places where the 350 uses thrust washers...a lone steel plate installed on the low/reverse clutch, a shorter front pump, etc. My question is - are there any "upgrade" parts from the 1982 350C that I could/should use in my 1972 350?
