Does it have the 4 prong square electrical connector on the case? If it does, there is a different set of years to use.

77 Chevrolet Monte Carlo with a 305 shown below.

ATP Part # SMS9 Contains Friction and Steel Clutch Plates, Gaskets, Seals, O-Rings, Sealing Rings, Bushings, Vacuum Module, and Filter Trans. code THM350; PLUS $71+ship.

Most of your early 80's GM products with a V8 will have the lockup version T350 called a TH350C. The 700R4 was optional through those years.

You'll find it all there and at good prices.

I hate to give away all the good places I have found/dealt with but www.wittrans.com is probably the best price/availability/part selection. Way, way, way better then bulkpart.

I just want to know when the yellowpages became outdated? I use the local suppliers and find, even after paying tax, I come about the same amount poorer. Case in point, I rebuilt a 727 Torqueflite and picked up a master kit, filter, and another paper and rubber kit for $75 locally without an account.

Shipping costs often offset the savings. I found often that buying local costs the same as internet.

Hmmm...

I don't have any input on your trans application...but can I go off topic and ask how hard/easy an auto trans rebuild at home is? I've never really considered it, but now (since I'm also looking at the stock car hobby), it seems like something I should look into.

Auto transmissions are a lot more prevalent...and if they're easy to rebuild (and the part/kit prices quoted here seem CHEAP!)...I'd be all for it.

You WILL spend $1k in specialty tools, period. Mostly because the bushing drivers are at least $400, spring press is either $225 for a vise model or $400 for a foot press model, plus all the other model specific tools. And that is to just to get started.
