Triple D, packratting junk for the "season"
It's obvious what "Triple D" (The Dumpster Diver of Drums) is doing
these days...packratting more junk ripped out of dead old coal miners' homes to try to scam on eBay. Now, he's adding more Google Groups accounts in hopes he can spam all that crap this winter. Ain't gonna happen, Noodles. They're onto you now, and I'm onto you like a license tag! BTW....Pontiacs NEVER used Chevrolet THM350s. You were outed again as a FRAUD in that Chrysler group! |

WRONG- Pontiac, Buick, Olds, and Chevy all used the TH350 trans- from mid-1960's to 1980's Chevy just had a different bellhousing pattern for 2 bolts http://www.iwaynet.net/~gl&lisk/1975ta.html Inadvertantly, they just might have. It seems a wheezy 185 hp 400 was the base motor, (it's power nearly halved from the Ram Air IV hey-day) barely had enough horsepower to make a speedometer which progressed past the 100 mile per hour mark an issue. Not only was the power produced utilarian, but so was it's power band, peaking at a mere 3600 rpm. With days of 3.73 gears long since gone, this meant it's power peak would be achieved while cruising at about 60 mph. The torque peak of 310 lb/ft at 1600 rpm was more suited for the axle ratios of the current period, giving a nice thrusty feel at the national speed limit of 55 mile per hour. If a Turbo-Hydramatic 350 was mated to the 400, the engine was coded YS . Applications the called for the 4-speed manual go the WT coded engine. http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/th350.htm Engine Compatibility and Adaptability GM The front face TH350 is natively compatible with either the Chevrolet 90 degree "Small Block" & "Big Block" patterned engines, including the V6, V8, I6 & Iron Duke I4.

I still have the owners' manual for my Firebird, it says TH350 right in the manual and explain this, you DUMB ASS http://www.off-road.com/jeep/tech/co...gmth350id.html Bolt Pattern The Turbo 350 case commonly comes with three different bolt patterns. Some cases have a Chevy engine bolt pattern, some cases have the Buick, Olds, Pontiac, and Caddy bolt pattern, and some have both. It is well worth getting the dual pattern, or unicase, Turbo 350. If you ever think you might do an engine swap, you won't have to worry about the transmission. It will also help the resale of the transmission because it will work with more engine combinations. The Buick, Olds, Pontiac, and Caddy engine bolt pattern is easily identified by the valley at the top and the Chevy pattern is peaked on the top. The dual pattern transmission in the picture on the right has both patterns. You can see the valley and peak. Each set of bolts around the top is in a pair. The alignment pin and the lower bolt is the same. |

The THM350 didn't even EXIST until 1969, because Chevrolet Division was too cheap to pay for 400s. Engine Compatibility and Adaptability GM The front face TH350 is natively compatible with either the Chevrolet 90 degree "Small Block" & "Big Block" patterned engines, including the V6, V8, I6 & Iron Duke I4. Another version, the Buick / Oldsmobile / Pontiac (BOP) TH350 will be compatible with the Buick 90 degree V6 & V8 engines, and the Olds & Pontiac 90 degree V8. This "BOP" version features a "valley" at the twelve o'clock position of the block flange where the peak would be on the Chevy (pictured) version. snip See, Noodles...you do what you accuse me of doing...getting all my knowledge from the Net and shop manuals. Not only that, your information here is faulty. Anyone who KNOWS anything about transmissions knows that: Chevrolet Division originally developed the THM350 to go behind their small blocks to save costs over Detroit Transmission's THM 400. Chevrolet didn't even OFFER anything with three speeds until 1968, when falling sales demanded that they start offering THM400s behind their "big blocks" in the Impala/Caprice line AS AN OPTION. The standard was still PowerSlide in '68. The THM350 was offered in all V8 powered cars in '69 while they cleaned out the rest of the PowerSlides as standard equipment. 1970 Chevrolets all used their own THM350, with the Chevy bolt patters and the 27 (I think?) tooth yoke spline, same as the PowerSlide. B-O-P didn't go along and had Detroit Transmission develop their own...the THM375, which was essentially a scaled down 400 without the 350's cheapness. You didn't even have to get under the car to identify a 375 from a 350...the 375 didn't have that overly late, drawn out 1-2 part throttle shift the 350 had. The 350s had a kickdown linkage, while the 400s held on to solenoid kickdown, as did the 375. The 375 was installed in ALL B-O-P cars with displacements up to 400 cu in until 1972. Buick had their own version with a switch-pitch conveter, a Buick Division trademark since 1954. 455s had the THM400, Buick's version with the switch-pitch conveter, a desireable find today. Under orders from Woodward Ave. to cut costs (and quality) further during their "less car for more money" campaign of the early '70s, B-O-P divisions were forced to abandon their own THM375 and use Chevrolet's THM350 with a different bolt pattern/bell housing until GM could start eliminating the other divisions' engines in yet another cheapening and economy move. This was the THM375B, which caused a lot of trans shops a LOT of dyspepsia, since a THM375 kit would NOT service a THM375B, and the case lengths were different (shorter) and they used linkage kickdown. The 375B also had extra clutch disks and plates in the clutch packs to try to handle (not all that well, mind you) the extra torque of 400" engines. B-O-P 455s also got this ****box in '72, while Chevrolet and GM Truck and Coach pickups still used the THM400. I remember working on a '72 Pontiac Catalina and spying the new "375B." The test drive after the tune-up confirmed the late 1-2 shift of a 350. A neighbor's '70 Catalina 400 had the THM400. GM had started its long drive to where it is now...the bottom of the barrel. Later, starting in '75, GM would dictate that Chevrolet engines AND transmissions (the THM350) would be used in ALL V8-equipped cars interchangably to give them yet another cost savings (and quality decrease). This plan was hindered by years due to the famous "Chevy-in-an-Olds" lawsuit against GM by a disgruntled customer who'd bought an Olds Omega, got it home, and found a Chevy 350 under the hood and the THM 350. GM was ordered to replace the car at no cost to the buyer, and many Olds Omegas were similarly turned in for Olds 350s with THM375Bs. Thus, GM tried to pull a fast one, got caught, and it would up wiping out any cost savings. This didn't stop them, and by 1980, almost all Olds Cutlasses and Buick Regals had Chevy powertrains as their base offering. If one wanted a "real Olds" or "real Buick," he'd have to pay more for a larger displacement engine. I remember this well, because while I was at the local Olds/Cad dealership getting parts, I'd stopped by the lot to check out the new Olds Omega, essentially a rebadged Chevy Nova, but supposedly with Olds "niceties." It was bizzare! I opened the hood on one, there was a Chevy 350. Open another, there was an Olds 4 bbl 350! Different transmissions, too! The salesman was VERY upset that I was looking at this, but I told him to **** off. There was 12 Omegas on the lot that day...eight with Chevrolet powertrains, and only four with Oldses, most being the 4 bbl option. A discussion with my attorney father confirmed that this was fraud, and they'd probably get caught. I read about the lawsuit about six months later in the LA Times. GM would, nonetheless, go one cheapening and chintzing in the late '70s, when they started putting Chevette transmissions (THM200) in full- and intermediate-sized products, which instigated another nationwide lawsuit in the '80s. GM...the worst there is! Go ahead, Noodles...try to refute these facts. |
