Ok, I am planning on dropping in a 4bbl chevy 350 when i drop in my axles, but I cannot decide on what transmission to run. I was thinking about the SM465, or an nv4500. I want a manual, and I want to be able to power shift (similar to what my ax15 does) I dont like the way full on truck trannys shift. I want to be able to take full advantage of the 400+ hp. Ill prolly run a 203/205 doubler or an atlas, with 4.56 gears and 37s so i dont really need a 6.5 granny gear. I like the gearing of the NSG370 but dont like its shifting characteristics.

Can I swap in any Transmission (as long as it mates to the engine) even if its in say a chevelle? Do I only need to add the TC?

any input/suggestions will be nice. Thanks.
