I thought Id ask the 200R4 experts for opinions:
I am swapping a 200R4 (86 Cutlass) into a 72 Buick Skylark 350 (~315HP,360Torq) that will not be revved over 5000RPM.
It is a heavier car, and I am looking for suggestions on what mods to do to the trans.
Currently I am planning on leaving the stock frictions in there.
I have a CK Performance shift recalibration kit on the way, I have a D5 converter I will use, .5 TV boost, .296 lo/rev boost.
Is a performance servo a must-have?
Am I headed in the right direction?
What are your thoughts on the trans core I am using?
My plan is to run it with relatively light modifications until it gives up, then I would consider a full performance rebuild.
thanks for any input.
