Someone told me you could use a 700r4 trans from late Olds with 307 Motor behind Buick 455. Anybody ever try this? How about electrical problems? Bernie Steffen.
Hey Bernie.Are you sure it`s not a 2004R OD?? I belive the 700 needs an adapter plate.Post a search for your request,lots of info around.Later,Tony.
There were some dual pattern 700-R4s made, but the 200-4r has a better gear selection and a larger overdrive( 200-.67 and 400-.70) and will bolt up to your engine
No, there were never any production dual-pattern 700R4 transmission cases. They were all Chevy V8 or 2.8L V6 patterns. The 2004R was either dual pattern or BOP pattern only. The adapter required to mount a 700R4 to a Buick is fairly inexpensive and easy to install if you choose that route.
200r4 vs 700r4 I hear all these stories about spending 2500 dollars on a 200 trans to make it live behind a 455. I was hoping I could find some kind of overdrive that would work in reasonably stock form. Old guy How old are you I'm 69 thanks for info Bernie Steffen
