Default How much HP does a TH350 tranny eat up???

I just dynoed my Nissan last night and it made only 540hp..this was thru an unlocked chevy automatic, which has never been done before in a Nissan 240.

I am a little disapointed with the numbers becasue we made 560hp on boost alone on a stock 5 speed. The 540hp we made was with a 75 shot.

Does a th350 eat up that much HP??????????



BTW..I would like to thank Jody and Owen at ARD for helping me with the tranny.

I'm not sure if there is an equation or specified percentage but I know it eats up alot of hp. My 427 with a turbo 350 only dynoed something like 440-450hp however it was still good enough for 10.30's on motor.

That is still a lot of power through a turbo 350 duy. They do eat up quite a bit of power..

i have seen cars making 460 rwhp through 6 speeds and drop to right over 400 hp with a th350.


just take it to the track and see what it can really do

its not that it eats up power. its due to the fact that its not a lockup tranny.so you will not see a whole lot of power at the wheels like if you had a lockup tranny.
