Inliners International Forums General Discussion Drive Train Powerglide vs TH350?

Somebody got any experience of this? Is the TH350 better trans to use on a 250 GM, normal cruiser? Would the TH increase milage? or is it just better for acceleration times,etc.....

IMO,the TH 350 would be a better trans than a PG for a street car.
You might see mileage difference if you can control your foot ;-)
Because you are going to like the acceleration a lot more than w/a standard PG.

It will keep the engine in a higher vacuum mode during the shifts than a PG would,wonder if that makes sense?

"Higher vacum mode" is understandable. Seems like it alike more/better responses on shift, and not the slow "crawl"shifting time as on the PG. Nice, can´t wait do get the swap done......
wintertime and snow here but my Chevy wants rollin´.
And my pedalcontrol has got some losses after i got some minor changes in the manifolds and carb change......well, its fun to beat a BMW uphill,belived to be quick!
