CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Turbo 350 vs. Metric 200 (stock eliminator)

Which one is faster behind a smallblock combo? Heard the stories that the 350 can be as fast if it's high dollar stuff. I also heard the 350 is more durable. I've raced 350's and glides but never a 200. So, if one does a Rossler or another high end piece, will the 200 go faster (quicker)? My concern is not as much about durability. I care more about elapsed time. Are there any problems with a 200 fitting a (68 to 72) Nova? The stick idea is very appealing to me, but my lack of knowledge in the clutch area makes me lean towards the automatic again. Thanks for any replies.
