The TH 200 is what the stock LUV auto trannys are.

Obviously im not planning on keeping the tanny but i dont have money right now to change it over to a TH350

i just want it at bare minimum drivable so i can get it out of garage.

Just granny drivin is all i need to get by

until i have the money to change the transmission

I don't think it will bolt up...

FIAA!

SFPP!

The TH200 came in alot of GM cars,even some of the big ones like mid to late 70's Caprice 4drs.
The ones that came in the LUV trucks had a special bellhousing and torque converter made just for the Isuzu engines.

Ah, ok well i wasnt holding my breathe or anything just figured "why not" just ask



TH350 you say? What have you had done to it?

also what did you have in mind price wise?

has been givin a full gut check, with nessacary upgrades - trans break, input/out, deep cast pan, etc etc... but it needs a torque converter.

looking to get 500$ for it, should be solid into the 750HP range or roughly low 9s in a 3200lb body.

Turbo 200 came behind the 305 in some heavier cars . It has the same overall length as the TH350 and the trans mount is within a 1/4". The set up can use the same bolt in adapters as the 350, TH350. It will not hold much stop light grand prix action. However it can be used as a driver. The TH200 was updated to the TH200R4 overdrive in later years. Check out http://www.photobucket.com/V8luv also http://www.powerbyace.com in the technical section has instructions for bolting in the V8 and trans.
