Metric 200 - What do I need to make one last

Billy Lynn does also a great Metric 200. If you've got a TH350/400 convertor, you can have a input for those installed along with the appropriate pump mods. The governor driven auto 1-2 makes them very consistent. The JW bell housings are a worthwhile addition or you can fabricate a brace for the stock case. Also, the Lokar flexible dipstick makes life a lot easier. The marks on the Lokar unit aren't correct so you need to remark it relative to the oil pan flange on the case. Retapping the oil pan holes to 1/4X20 from the metric size is another thing to do to simplify things. If you elect to have a roller rear bearing installed in place of the bronze one, the drive shaft yoke will likely need to be turned down about .020 for proper fit.

For what it's worth. -Al
