[scottc72]

[350tranZam]

composes music better than beethoven.

music to my ears

[fireamracing]

i thank HPP for that info! helped me in understanding my tranny sept 03 Vol 24 #9 i had a 4 speed that was from a 301 in mine at first and i blew it up a few weeks ago on the interstate running 80 damn what a sound to! then found one for a 400 and i can tell just alittle difference in the two mainly in first and 2nd

[fireamracing]

1st and 2nd gear are different, first gear is a 3:42 2nd gear is 2:28 and 3rd is 1:46 Nowforthe 4 speeds that came with 400's 1st gear is 2:43 2nd is 1:76 3rd is 1:47. ther are 3 different kinds of maincases in for T-10's to #902 is gray iron #903 the maincase is aluminum #904 the case is nodular iron. 1304-065 is the rest of the serial number for maincases the tailhouse casting# 13.04.066.905 sidecover casting#13-04-097-901 rear bearing retainer casting# t89c-6A. so thats it for BW 4 speeds 79

[scottc72]

good info, thanks. i knew 1st was lower wasn't sure if 2nd or 3rd was also.

[fireamracing]

hey 15sp4250  u do know that your 4 speed is not like the ones that were put in the 400 cars they are have different gear set up. i have the numbers if u want them.

[scottc72]

good point fiream: the 301 4 speeds are the same tranny, just have a slightly lower first gear ratio to help the weaker 301 get the car moving easier.

[fishandchipdude]

Well, from what I read it puts out about 185hp and I'm old and decrepid... as my son would say, and I can only go so fast on the highways... so I'm a realist and good to go! Thanks for your input...

[fishandchipdude]

I just bought a bandit style TA with a 403 and pick it up in 10 days. Really looking forward to it. I'll have to take your word that it has some power. Sweet looking car though...

[scottc72]

don't take my word, the 403 is an olds engine & the lowest hp option for these cars. mine is a pontiac 400 & has been rebuilt to higher than factory hp. you may not be happy with the as stock performance of the 403....but it's still a t/a & can always be built up!

[RebelTyger27]

Yeah I just bought a project car also.79 Trans Am with the 403auto.Its primered and the interior is shot but its fast as hell lol.

[scottc72]

thanks!  your 301 4/sp car is actually quite rare, the 4 speed trans was a very rare option with a pontiac 301 motor. if its original i would consider keeping the 301 or at least hang onto it if you use the 400. my car is a 4 speed with the 400, they are fun to drive!

[15sp4250]

wow man really sweet car

my dad and i just bought a 79 trans am with a 301 and a 4 speed as a project car

we are building a 400 to put in it and it is at the machine shop right now.

i really love your car thanks for sharing :)

[masheen01]

Is that stock except for the exhaust?

[scottc72]

no, rebuilt .030 bore, forged pistons, .500 lift cam, raised compression & a performance rebuild & tune on the q-jet carb.

[Ratmouth66]

Dude, i envy you haha, this car is so badass, i love the black with red interior, actually my dream car would be a 79' T/A black with red interior, t-tops, manual transmission (i'd probly swap for a T56), and i'd probly swap for a newer LS engine for the amazing mileage and power they can get, just cam it up for that beefy sound thats oh so necessary

My first car was a 91' RS Camaro, auto with 305, T-tops (never had any leaks even with 3 Indiana winters) still have it and still love it

[scottc72]

thanks for the compliment.

[redneck812273]

i am 15 and i cant wait till i get my licence that way i can drive one of these babys they are amazing

[scottc72]

glad to hear you like these cars...most kids want a rice burner! my first car was a firebird. check out my other vids too.

[redneck812273]
