According to Hughes, they can make me a non lock up converter for my TH 350 that would have a little more stall speed but feel "tighter" on the freeway when up to speed. I have not done this as of yet because I haven't decided on what trans I am going to end up with. Trust me I am the last person who would claim to be any kind of trans expert. Jay


I really don't know much about the lighter duty autos. Back in the day it was all small block V8s, TH400s, TH350s, TH700s, T10s, and Muncies that people talked about. So I really don't know much about their little brothers until I got my 3spd Saginaw and started learning about how the Sags are put together. I'd like to learn more about the application of 200s. Especially what they will fit into with modifying the sheet metal of the drivetrain tunnel. I know the 700s will fit in a 3rd gen Camaro, but not earlier Camaros or Novas.
