Prob not. The first gear in the 4l60E is shorter than the TH350, it would probably hurt your 60'. There is a lot less gap between 1st and 2nd in the TH350, but it would more than likely just offset itself in ET. Not worth the $change$ IMO.

I bet you would see a bunch if you went to TH-200.....

.....but I bet it wouldn't last long on the street.


Are you running synthetics? 0-20 Mobil 1 is worth some ET. Running one quart low will also help. Same goes for the rear. Just top everything off before you drive long distances.

Pump the front tires up (60 psi). How is the alignment? Do the brakes drag?

As stated above, a cooler intake will yield best results (Not as much in negative DA!).

I do not run synthetics but will be swaping. I will start icing the intake. The alignment is great. The breaks drag little. Mayb i should get rotors turn to get them trued up.

Shift extension with the 4L60E will kill you in the 330', that's where the converter comes in. For now...

-Pull bumper supports
-At the track... loosen LCA bolts, jack up front of car to full droop, tighten LCA bolts-Pull carpet, passenger seat, interior plastics rubber matting on firewall
-Gut dash, !dash support bar
-Run 1/4 tank of gas
-Run !accessory belt. Run a battery charger/push the car through the lanes.
Can you elaborate on that one? Thanks in advance

It preloads the front suspension and actually helps weight transfer. If you drive around like that it will cause the front end to rise up a lot and maybe be a little dangerous. It will also kill the bushings. I have done it at the upper control arm with decent results.



Quick Reply: how can i pick up 2 ths.
