what im scared is something will break down when i hit the pedal...
what should i do? or should i not be worried?  |
If you are looking to step it up performance wise, I have a 3-3500 stall for sale. A stock converter will feel like a dog but if you are going for all stock setup you will be ok.
I have a Trans Specialties converter I had built for my wifes car with very low miles. It was in a 68 camaro, 350 cu in, turbo 350 with about 400hp. The converter made drivability much better since it had a larger cam. No more feathering the gas with the brake on at a stoplight. It also allows you to get in your usable power range much quicker and is alot more fun to drive.
I replaced the turbo 350 with a 5-speed this summer so I just have it layin around. Check out the for sale section.
Also, more info about your combo would be useful.
