TH350 Clutches / Modifications

Chad E532 · 05-14-2011, 09:58 AM

I am attempting my first automatic transmission rebuild and am wondering what clutch/steel count I should use in the various clutch packs for my application.
I will be running Red Alto clutches with Kolene steels along with a manual valve body with no band.

From my research I have found a few modifications I am going to try like enlarging the direct clutch cooling holes (and adding a few more) along with adding bushings to the sun gear and running a wider direct clutch/drum bushing. Any other tricks I should implement?

The application is a 3400 lb small block car running 11.30's
Thanks in advance,
Chad
