? do i stick with a th350 or the 700r? i know the 350 is stronger but with 4.11 gears the 700r 4 will save on gas and give me good top speed

What do you have in there now. Engine/tranny combo? HP/TQ? Rear Gear? Tires? Weight of the car? Power adders?

Where will you end up?

Do you drive it everyday?

stay away from the 700r4 and 4l60e they are weak as hell get the th350 or a 4l80e--(out of vette) they are much stronger---if you want a fast car you shouldnt worry about gas---also dont run such a high gear----you can still be really fast without a high gear in the rear....

I wouldnt run that small of a final gear ratio with any automatic if you plan on using it for street use.
