Blackwater,
What rpm was the engine running at say 60 or 70 mph with the two different rear ratios?
Also, if I understand right, a Powerglide is more efficient than a Turbo 350. (more of the power going in comes out the output shaft). How do the 200R4 and 700R4 compare?
For me the extra gear in the T350 is well worth whatever extra power it might consume compared to P/G.
Thanks
