Ya, I did a search. I didn't find any definite info. I need a reverse pattern valve body with compression braking for TH350. I called TCI, B&M, Jett, Art Carr, and several others with no luck. Art Carr makes one for a TH400, but not a TH350. Anybody with a name, number, or any other info? Thanks.

Art Carr is in process of making one talked to Dennis in tech they had one but kept eating the trans he said look for one around the first of the year I'm hoping to get the first one he has available will let you know when they are out

Found a couple at Summit:

TCI (http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=25373)

Hughes Performance HP3210R $207.95 (backordered)

Both are full manual, I assume that is what you want (don't think you can get them otherwise)


Hmmm, maybe not. Just re-read your post and saw the compression braking part. Lemme look some more.

Kevin, what no more dual SM-465's?! That's Ok I understand your reasoning for the auto, it's going in your new comp buggy isn't it?

I just got my TH350 rebuilt....and was talked out of a RP-Manual. Probably a good thing because this is just a weekend warrior. How harsh are the shifts on a man valve body if you don't defuel first?

Does this give you TRUE compression braking, or just like down shifting on an standard auto? I thought you would need to lock the TC to get compression braking (unless you have a lock up kind, but they are smaller = more heat for the TH350 versions?)

No more dual 4-speeds. It is hard to justify 450 lbs of transmission related weight in a comp rig.
