Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

Well I took the Barracuda out for a spin this morning. When I drove it home after I had finished the swap (the other day) I took it easy on the transmission to let it get broken in, let the fluid circulate real good and also let it set overnight to check for any leaks and double check fluid level. But today I took it out to see if I had any better low end response from a stop. Well I didn't "floor it" but I did give it about 3/4 throttle off the line and it broke both tires loose :burnout:(295s) and spun them freely for about 12 feet before I let off the gas. I have a new set of 4:10 gears for the car but now I'm thinking 3:73s or 3:90s. With 3:73s I'd be cruising at 70 MPH clocking 2261 RPM and with 3:90s it would be 2364 RPM.
When I had the 904 it was doing 2786 RPM at 70 MPH. My converter has an 1800 max stall so even with 3.73s I would still be way above that on the highway. The trans shifted so smooth but I noticed that when I punched it and stayed on the throttle it shifted more firmly than when I'm just cruising...the perfect set up for me!!! If I use the 4:10s it would probably be uncontrollable off the line and would also clock 2485 at 70 MPH which would only be 300 RPM less than what I had originally with the 904. The 3:73s would reduce my RPM by 525 PRM. As it sits right now with the 3:08s I cruising at 70 MPH clocking 1867 RPM (no wonder the droning noise is gone!!!!!!!).


HAPPY DAYS!!! :cheers: :blob: You were right Mopar To Ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
