- Actually, it's 4 speed OD, lockup trans. It mounts on (if I
- recall) TH-350 mounts, but the driveshaft is a little shorter than
- it's TH350/400 counterparts. Same tranny that is used in the 'Vette.
- It's got a lower first gear than the TH-350/400, but heavy duty
- parts are reccomended for hi-po operations. It can be built to take
- power just fine, tho.
- The 200-4R is it's cousin, and it's basically a TH-200 with OD added.
- Needless to say, it's not very strong, but it does hold up behind
- several 12 second Buick GN's I know.
