even if you have to email me your answers ;)

tranny in question is t-350

as far as all rotating parts are they the same for a 350 lock-up as in a non lock t-350?

Im pretty possitive the valve bodies are different so does anyone offer a manuel v/b or t-brake for the lock-up version ?

now to converters I realize some are building lock-up converters for t-400's so since 350 and 400 interchange converters can the performance lockup converters be used in lock-up t-350's ?

If not does anyone offer say a good 3500 stall lock-up converter that will work in a lock-up t-350?

we got the best tranny guys around on this site so I expect some good answers :D

I know its not a 2004r but this is a tranny section not a 2004r tech section :p

thanks guys for all the help your about to give me ;)
 
we do offer lockup 350 converter at stalls up to 4000 rpm.the 350 lockup is weaker but does have a rollerized front planetary.you can update the sun shell with an early type thick wall unit and we make a 44 element direct drum and sprag thatll handle over 1000 ftlbs.forward pattern full manual valve body is available .we dont offer our 350 brake with lockup but it can be made without too much trouble.
 
:) I figured youd come thru with a reply :)

Im still planning on giving you a ring about nearings stuff ..just been too busy with other stuff and that converter has not been high priority

I guess now I have more reason to ring you up now and go over whats involved inthis setup ..If it worked out well enogh Im thinking there are a few others in the area that would be interested in it.. most are not turbo buicks but me I want to do it in a turbo buick so thats the reason for manual valve body

I dont HAVE to have a brake but if It could be done within a reasonable figure it would be nice to have
 
hey bruce,dont tell me you cant build a 350:D .come on and add some tech to this.the place is getting to be quiet.lets stir the pot,not smoke it:eek:
 
Chris is giving you the correct info..

Why would I want to interfere? He has answered all your questions. And he is right.
Why another cook in the kitchen?
Unbenounced to anybody right now, I have some major health issues. I cannot be around as much as desired right now. I need to have surgery soon and , honestly, I am a little frightened. My health is priority one right now. If anybody feels the need to demean, take shots at me, or attack me under these circumstances, that is on them.
The pain never subsides now.
I just hope you all can understand. If not, well, I have nothing else to say. I will say that Thanks Chris for helping out as I only wish at this time I could be around more.
I didn't want to bring this out to the public, but it seems people just want to take shots cause I haven't been around. NOW you ALL know why.

Nothing else to say, but put in a good word with the man upstairs for me.
