Lightbulb opinons wanted!

my truck currently has a 3spd that i hate,i have a choice of transmissions to put in it. i have a TH-350,TH-400,and a 700-R4. i was wondering about the 700-R4 conversion. mine is out of a 91 astro van so it has an electric speedo which is problem #1,problem #2 is that i want to have the shifter right(column shift) with an OD on the indicator is this possible or am i dreaming? the 3.73 gears are killing my milage,i drive 30 miles one way to work every day

I am putting a 700R4 out of a 91 Chevy Van in My 72. I have a B&M megashifter which comes with the OD indicator. I also have 3.73 gears so I am looking forward to OD. I had a Turbo 400 in it before.

It used to be that a mans word ,or a hand shake was all that was needed.......no pc of paper to keep him "legally honest". If you have some bussiness that needs to be delt with......it would be a good thing to respond,as there are too many hard working,honest guys /gals on this board. Not my trouble........but my opinion! ......69 longhorn.

Yes but it sounds like we know the whole story in this case, the other party, "TIMMY" who has been on this board today has made no attempt to respond or defend. Not looking good for the kid.

Your going to get BLACKBALLED!! Instead of worrying about your other stuff you ought to take care of your old business. I don't think you'll get anymore answers on questions or be able to sell anymore stuff on here. If you did screw him over you should be BANNED!!!!

Sell the trans and give the money back for the fenders, otherwise square up and send the fenders. Everyone likes a good deal but it needs to work both ways...
