Re: [Chevelle-list] 402 BB & TH350

[Pelle Andersson]

This might explain the combo?
I think I've read somewhere that some people prefer a prepped TH350 for 
racing applications
rather than a TH 400 due to the 400's power drainage.
The car was once a street/strip project in the 80's which never got to be 
finished
and the guy who I bought it from just put it back together from pieces, had 
it for
a while and then sold it to me...
 
I'm planning to go the same way but I'm leaning more towards street rather 
than strip and
with some serious power under the hood I better check that 350 up!?
 
Thank's

  A stock TH350 needs some beefing up to live a long life behind a

Big blocks only got 4 speeds or a TH400 trans from 68-up and a 4 speed 
or powerglide from 67 and down.  A TH350 may hold up for a while on a 
stock big block, but if you put any kind of real torque behind it, it won't 
last long.

Yes to the blade width. 3/4" would be great for your app. 1/2" would be 
good. The thickness would vary with blade style. (teeth/inch, alloy of 
blade, etc.)

thanks for giving me some good advice..the jet I"m looking at does 6 " , 
but doesn't have the hyd down, or the oiler pump..I'd like to have the next 
model up that has more of the bells and trinkets.. as well as the bigger 
blade..


and by blade width, I asssume you don't mean thickness but distance from 
teeth to the top flat edge, yes ?

Jim, I've owned and used several larger saws in my shop, and for the money 
Jet Equipment is a very good brand. Not sure how small they go, the 
smallest I had was a 7"x12", now I have a 10"x18". They both were about 
2/3 the price of some of the more familiar brands. The main thing to 
consider is the blade width. The wider the blade, the better quality cut 
and longer blade life.

Guys
do any of you have a horizontal band saw now, that you would recommend as 
good enough for some one else to buy it ?


I want to build a few body rotissories and the thought of sawing all that 
tubing with my chop saw doesn't appeal to me...the cheapies go from 140 
bux and up on ebay to 200 bux in the local stores..all the way to 4

I'd appreciate any insight.

Re: [Chevelle-list] 402 BB & TH350

[Gene's General Restoration Parts]

Hi,
 The main weakness in a TH350 is the 
intermediate roller clutch, I used the TH400 based replacement drum w/36 element 
sprag from http://www.400raptor.com/ a little 
pricey but a needed improvment. Even though I am running a small block I broke 
the stock parts on the first test drive!

I have a 502 in front of my TH350.  They, like 
any auto, can be built to hold the power.  If it is stock, I'd say start 
saving up for a new tranny, but I'd say the same thing for a stock 400.

[Chevelle-list] GET THE FAT MAT

[Chevellebuddy]

 
 
Couple years ago I realized I had to do something about 
the
noise level in my Chevelle.  While I do run quiet 
mufflers, &
afterall it is a convertible we're talking about, the 
headaches
I was having even with the top up were getting to 
me.  I was
in the midst of totally redoing the interior when it came to 
my
attention that might as well update insulation, having 
replaced
everything else with new, better, more reliable or 
safer.
 
If I'm less fatigued after a long trip, then I will also have 
had
a much safer trip.  Every little bit less the car can 
beat me
senseless on a long trip is good to me, you 
understand?
 
Think about it.
 
The stock insulation is heavy, deteriorates quickly, & 
doesn't
perform to the levels of anything by today's standards.  
It is
also not visible so why not replace it with better than 
origional?
 
I used Fat Mat.  I doubled & 
even tripled in some areas where
drivetrain nose would be a problem.  Only used this 
material in
places it wouldn't be seen/detected easily, ie., not under 
hood,
or trunk areas.  The product is really thin and appears to 
be tar
asphalt like substance on aluminum backing.  Stuff is 
sticky &
seems to adhere better than some applications of Dynamat 
I've
heard about.  I bought off e-Bay!  It comes in a 
kit, and one box
did everything I wanted and more:   Hence the 
2-3 layers I spoke
of & the results were excellent.  Drastically 
reduced road noises
that seemed to invade interior before to now reasonable 
levels.
 
It was less expensive than Dynamat.  Roller included was 
okay.
I never had to acetone wash the old surface, but I did scrap it 
well
and clean it with 
detergent.  Backing is very sticky tar, conformed
well to different contours of the pans.  Sometimes I 
worked small
peices into curves overlapping sometimes for better 
coverage.
 
Helped to amplify the clarity of the stereo immensely, 
& it made
the overal feeling in the car more secure by isolating 
occupants
from a lot of vibration and heat previously coming from 
drivetrain
floor & firewall,
 
The rest is history now thanks to Fat 
Mat!
 
Too bad I couldn't get paid to sponsor them, 
LOL.
