M6 to TH350 net weight difference About to do M6 to TH350 swap shortly. Wondering what you guys were ending up at weight wise for the entire swap. I am reusing the stock driveshaft for now and probably going with a 10" verter. Just wondering if any of you guys have details on how much weight you gained or lost (I figure about a 30 lb gain).

With the next round of modding I'll be well on my way to 2900 flat.

There is not much difference. I don't remember the difference between my m6 and TH400, but it was not what you think it is. Like 10-15 lbs. And a TH350 is lighter than a TH400 so there you are..

)/clutch you had, & a regular 10" verter its probably about 10-30ish lbs. lighter.... if you have a t/braked 350 its about 5-10lbs lighter from all the **** taken out too

Hell if I lost weight with this swap that would be the cat's pajamas.
I just figured the addition of the trans cooler, plus the lines, additional weight of the verter and tranny I would gain something even with taking out the master cylinder, clutch lines, and pedals.Marty
