Here's your first problem:

The mustangs are going to outbeat your car. Problem is you don't have the gears to do any sort of mustang hunting. If your running that low of a gear, numerically mind you, then you are much better of going with the TH350. I will bet you 50$ that if you put that 2004r in your car with that gear selection in the back, you'll never use the 4th gear and barely get any use out of the 3rd gear...

I learned real quick that building a bada** engine is nice, but if you don't address the overall combination of your drivetrain, your gonna be suckin to the 4 bangers. Now why are you gonna let some stupid mustangs get to you? There are dozens of those cars out there and I've seen every single variation of them. They can wreck their cars and go out the next day and buy one identical to it. YOU CAN'T DO THAT WITH YOUR CUTLASS! I'm 19 years old and trust me, I know what it's like to want to smoke the living hell out of everything in the parking lot and on the street. Soon you learn that you gain a whole new respect for you car once you start building and taking car of it.

Well said. Oh , and nice engine compartment picture.

The 200-4r would not last. The TH350 is much stronger and would hold up just fine. You would blow that 2004r the second you tried a burn out.

i beg to differ..i have a rocket also, with a posi 373 in rear and a stock 200-4r and i smoked the tires plenty of times, i did put an external trans cooler to help with cooling and have had no issues..

That's probably why its lasted because of the intercooler. The biggest threat to OD transmissions is overheating and that goes for all car manufacturers. My 96' Dodge dakota has a factory one external to the radiator luckily.

If you want to get rid of that 200-4r ill be more than happy to take it off your hands.

Was he talking about the Metric 200 3-speed or the 2004r 4-speed w/ overdrive?

i think he meant 2004r. 200's dont last long behind buick V6's let alone a V8. ask me how i know.
