My car is running a TH350 from my old '71 C10 and I want it to shift more like a hot roadster and less like a firewood hauler. Truck had 3.08 gear and car is 3.00. Light throttle shifts at 15 and 25, heavy at something like 30 and 45.
I removed a TH350 of unknown history and it had lighter governor springs with stock weights. Both trannies shift well and I didn't notice any difference between it and the truck's, which has a known stock governor.
I have a governor kit with various weights and springs so my question is: Who has done this and which combination did you use?
My powerband is 800-4800, mild Comp cam ground for tall gear. Unknown converter is probably stock and seems to be 1600-1900 stall. New t/c is 2000-2300 so should get the revs up a little. I am thinking very light weights and medium-light springs for later shifts.
Any ideas?
