How many miles were on your 200-4R when it blew?  My '88 CSC has 124K on it and
the 200-4R is fine (so far).  There are also many people on the Olds G-body
list with 100-150+K trannys that are still hanging in there.  If you do regular
maintenance and don't abuse the car, there's no reason why you can't get 150+K
with a 200-4R with a stock 307 engine.  It's true the TH350 is stronger in
stock form than a 200-4R; but the 2.74 first gear and 0.67 O/D of the 200-4R
are features that might make it a better choice than the TH350, at least in
some applications (i.e. street/highway driving).  My $.02, FWIW.


 We have been through this many times.  Go with the TH350.  The 200 4R is a
 POS.  I blew one to pieces with a stock 307 Olds w/140 HP.

cheaper to build and a whole lot stronger.  It will handle any mildly built
small block you can throw at it.  I put a TH350 in my 86 Cutlass and never
had a problem with it with the 307 or the 350 horse 350 I dumped in it.

I blew one out (2004R) with the first shift on a short street with a Vortec 
350...trashed it goodget a TH-350
