Conversions & Hybrids - Th350 VSS question

I havent really heard or seen Anyone say much about there stock vss,

My question is, i am running a 5.3l, getting computer flashed to delete a bunch of stucx, but i saw on lt1swap.com that he is saying you need a electric vss pulse to the pcm,
Is this true? Says it can effect fuel mileage, idle issues. Has anyone done this before and is it a must?

*stuff* not stucx

Depends on how you have the tune..if you set it up for a standard then it might not matter in a way. There are conversion kits out there.

I'm about to put a TH350 into my car and I have an extra T56 Reluctor layin around, I'm looking into modifying it to work on the Tailhousing with a VSS.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Why Merv why? Tell me you didnt hurt the T56 again. To the op, most guys run a vss to keep the engine from stalling when you come to a stop and to help the idle. Dakota Digital has a setup thats been used countless of times as well as JagsThatRun.com

Lol..that's the Track Trans, the T56 will still be in it for the street fun..:drive:

I have a Turbo 350 in my Nova swap and im not running a VSS. The car starts, idles and runs fine. Even when coming to a stop.....no issues at all.

get the 40 tooth wheel, sensor and tailhousing from an early to mid 90s 2WD truck that has it.

those 4L60 model tailhousings bolt to a 6" tail Th350 or bolt to a 9" tail w/ a spacer.

Does the same apply to the 700r4?

Depending on the year, some of the 700r4's had tailhousings with vss.

That thought crossed my mind, where did you get the spacer?

what about if you have a 4wd trans? Just one of the dakota digital ones?

I put a th350 in my Monza with the LS1 with no VSS and never had any problems.

I have th400 and motor wants to die comming to a stop. Idles and drives fine. I am hooking mine up tomorrow.
