    The "Road Oiler" gets overdrive (700R4 Swap)

    it is real easy and cheap to install a np205 on a 700r4, you will need to find an np205 from a turbo 350 with the adapter and sleeve. then you will need a spacer between the trans and transfer case adapter, here is the link http://www.areds.com/ call them up and tell them you need the 2 inch...

    The "Road Oiler" gets overdrive (700R4 Swap)

    I have done several of the swaps, one had an NP205 installed to the 700r4, customer was very happy! As for tire spin, with the low stall convertor and lower first gear, mine will do a burnout if I hold brakes. Glad to see someone else has had great success with this swap. For others that want...

    Gear vendor vs. 700r4

    If your worried about breakage, there is a company out there that took the hard parts from a 4l65E and stuffed them in the 700r4, they used the 700r4 valve body for a fully hydraulic trans ( no electronics) that is extremely stout, according to there web site it can handle up to 1200 HP, there...

    Gear vendor vs. 700r4

    I think the 700r4 is the better option over all. The gear venders is to expensive and parts are not cheap, the 4l80E is kinda pricey to get (unless you find one in a junkyard cheap) and the computer to control it is almost $1000 dollars..........ouch! I can pick up good 700r4's all day long...

    Fuel Delivery System Overhaul

    I was running about 50% WMO for about 3 months, didn't have any damage but had a loss of power, the WMO doesn't have as many btu's available so not as much power as diesel, if running more than 10% (thats what I am running now) you will need a turbo, a naturally aspirated diesel can't burn the...

    Its not a 350 diesel!

    in 80 or 81 can't remember they did convert the 350 to a diesel till 83 but it didn't go over very well, so they went back to the drawing board and came up with the 6.2 in 84. The earlier versions barely made it of the show room floor without breaking (the 350 version)!

    Transfer Case

    Transfer Case

    What the heck does this have to do with the difference between an air shift internals and non air shift internals?

    M1008 with 700r4 swap.. MPG and top speed?

    Up you will need a new flexplate, also will need to change the input shaft on the np203 box to a 27 spline and get a different trans to transfer case adapter. I am working on getting brackets made for the tv cable will keep informed. The tv cable rod that attaches to the pump can be bought at...
