Not sure but your wallet would be lighter because the metric wont last very long behind the big block.

Metric 200 trans weighs about 35 pounds less than a Turbo 350 trans---another thing to consider is it takes about 45 HP/400---30 HP/350---20HP/PG -powerloss going thru the transmission to the drive shaft---If $$$ is not a concern and you want a BALLS OUT racing trans talk to Scott McClay---if you are going STOCK/SUPER STOCK racing talk to Billy Lynn he builds lots of them his prices are fairly (he-he) reasonable--If you ever saw the inside of a "stock" 200 trans you would wonder how the hell they ever hold up in normal street use---- weight/ HP is the limiting factor on a 200---350 will take quite a bit of HP/Torque compared to the 200---call around talk to the trans guys they won't bull**it you--- Comp 387

FED 387 sed:

"about 45 HP/400---30 HP/350---20HP/PG"

But, how much for the metric-200, and just for the sake of comparison, how much for a 904 T-Flite?

Any information will be appreciated!
