    Talking trans problem

     



    call B&M and ask for their tech dept or slam a THM 400 with a short tail shaft housing and check your D shaft for proper length.

    sounds like you got the wrong flex plate all 350 flex plates should interchange. if its a 454 youll need a ext. bal. flex plate.

    Be sure thats a t-350 transmission. The 82 olds came with either a t-200 a 200-R4 as alternatives to that transmission. If it had a 260 and you stole the flexplate from it, the plate wont bolt on. If it was a 307, its a 50/50 chance.
