  I am running a 3.55 rear gear 27" tall tires.
  They sent me a  77797  GOTTASHOW DIPSTICK AND TUBE-2004R,700R4 
and a I thought they installed a Hayden cooler, but the invoice shows a 54073 SETRAB OIL COOLER HD:  18000GVW 16 ROW/MADE IN SWEDEN/IT HAS DASH 6 FITTINGS ON THE COOLER THAT WILL EXCEPT BRAIDED COOLER LINES.

Morning. A couple of questions. 1) did the 2004R that you used was it from a Chevy or a Buick,Pontiac or Olds as the bolt patterns are  different and 2) did you have to rebuild the tranny as the 360 is rated very close to the limit of HP and Torque of the 2004R. I have one from a 1985 Buick that I would love to put in my 1972 AMX with a 401 and replace my 727.

I figure the trans is from a BOP, as we talked about the different bell housings, GM vs BOP.  As my story mentions I went with Art Carr, as I gave him my info and they  built a transmission for me, with the correct beefier internal parts.    You could probably look at what they say they do to the transmissions, and order the stuff yourself, and build it yourself.
