    700 R4 seems to have been the choice for the Corvette platform, and fits with factory pieces. I think if you search the archives there has been much discussion on this.

      The 700 R4 is a good trans. What type of improvement are you looking for Bob?

        Later version post 86 700 R4 seems to be the choice of many. All that have done it say it is the best upgrade they have ever done for drivability.

          Agreed.

          Did you get it running right first?
          You seem to have a desire to throw expensive replacements at fixing simple problems.

            I'm the guy with the trans with the "Hard Garage Shifts" Thought it might be best to just swap out the old one instead of going mad trying to identify the problem. Would like a good, low first gear and an OD

            THAT would make me happy as a clam!
