    Call every trans shop within an hour drive. How far are you from Ponca?

    700r4 Issues

    Sounds like you need to find a better trans shop. I have a 700r behind a 454 and tow 5k lbs on a regular basis with no issues. They can be great transmissions if built right.

    350 to 454

    Yes. If that return fluid gets up to 190 to 200 it time to back off a little

    350 to 454

    in the pan

    350 to 454

    Get as much as you can, better to have it and not need it. get the entire engine harness as you may need to change a few pigtails and the oil pressure sender on the 454 is on the front lower driver side of the block instead of by the distributor like the 350, so you will have to extend the wires...
