Ebay 200-4r: Did I get what I paid for?
Ok, I forwarded some of your questions on to the builder, and I quoted his reply in blue: "We actually use a solid spring eliminating movment of the slide. The rings are hardened." "The boost valve is either a 490 or 500." "We drill out the drain back unless it's already the larger...- Nocturnaloner

Ebay 200-4r: Did I get what I paid for?
I don't have a turbo Buick. :) This is going into a 63 Nova with an average street small block up front, no more than 400hp. Total cost, with shipping, was about $1070, including a 2000 stall converter. Sounds almost too good to be true, but I just got an email reply from someone who is...- Nocturnaloner

Thanks Mike! Be aware that I am a total novice when it comes to automatic transmissions. What I need is an 'Auto Trans 101' type article, and a good basic reference to the 200-4r for a start. Thanks for the assessment of their claims, that is important, but I go back to my original...- Nocturnaloner

Ebay 200-4r: Did I get what I paid for?
So I took a gamble, and bought a 200-4r transmission on ebay. The seller claims it to be "suitable up to 500 horsepower and above". His feedback is good. If it's good to anything over 400hp, it should be more than adequate to my purpose. Question: Given this laundry list of mods and features...- Nocturnaloner
