Something to do with direction of oil flow and excessive pressure build up in the converter. I heard this from Coan.
Thanks Bill, It most likely has to do with using the support bushing ,either inside the pilot, or in the stator support. I don't build 350 conversion transmissions. I just build straight 200 converters to go with my trans's.
My new 305 converter will be for straight 200s, at first,which I think will be the most popular.
Again, Leo also builds the 350 conversions ,as does Jack Sepanik and a few others.
