    Ok have a 455 buick of course but i have a th400 tranny and a th350 tranny..... I dont know if this fact applies to buicks or if it even applies? But here i go any how, I got a buddy who has a 455 olds with a th350 tranny.... I asked him why dnt you go with the th400? His answer "the th350 gives a better whole shot off the line" So after he explained to me his points I got to thinking hey, I have a th350 and a th400 which one should i use? I dont plain on go over the 600 hp mark but then again will the tranny with stand the wraith of the 455? What are your thoughts on this topic lets get some good discusion going:beer

    Yes that kind of helped, it told me that a th350 will work but it wasnt compared to a th400.
