I am swapping from an M6 to a TH350 now. Call Jay Billingsly for all you need. They have even put together a tail shaft for a 350 that will keep the VSS. It looks very nice. I should have mine back together next week.
Billingsly is putting together a kit and has all the details worked out.

Do you know what it comes with and how much it will cost? I'm going to have them build me a 12bolt pretty soon might just have them build me a tranny too.

Not sure on the cost. I am the test rat for this. Call Jay and ask if he has a price yet. I went TH350 instead of TH400 due to weight and efficency. The trans is being built to handle 1000 HP or way more than I have or will have. I also upgraded some parts in the already upgraded trans. I am going to use an aluminum drum instead of steel. The converter is also custom based on the car specs. It is not out of the box or a SBC converter. I did get my own shifter, but taht's really all I needed to supply.
Just tell Jay you saw this and ask for a price. It is a lot like the setup he is running in his car.
