I'm looking at Extreme OD's in Cincy but holy hell it going to cost me.
I'm going to end up spending all my savings on transmission and exhaust.
Paint and Body will now be WAAAAY down the road unless I can find someone who is willing to put me a floor pan in and fix my t-tops while the paintjob is put on hold.
Body now, paint later type of thing.
You are in VERY good hands If this is the transmission guy you are going to have build the transmission. Lonnie Diers. He is very well known in the Turbo Buick world and knows how to build a 200 4r that will handle a lot of power and will last. http://extremeautomatics.com/th2004R.php

Yeah, I get the sense.
It so hard to make decisions that cost so much $ when your love for a car so far outweighs you're knowledge.
I need to do way more reading before I drop $2k+ on a transmission.
Honestly, I was naive about how much it was going to be.
In, 2007 I soent $1200 on a TH350 that my dads go to transmission guy said was plenty strong for the torquey Pontiac.
I talked to him today without telling him who I was. I asked about his experience with 200-4rs, he was like "yeah Ive built a few". It wasn't reassuring. Especially after reader so much from gear heads online about how different those OD's are.
I remain on the fence.
I wish I was more like this guy though...

Problem is...his sh*t was serviced by the greatest military engine of all time.
That's the light diffuser for the shift indicator. What you really should be concerned with is having the correct shifter as the one for the 200 4r is different.

That is the Buick/Oldsmobile shifter which will only work with a Buick or Oldsmobile console.....unless that is what you are using. The Grand Prix console was taller and used a different shifter that was more like the one used in the Monte Carlo and El Caminos
