Re: metric 200 chevy bolt pattern
There are a few posts on here about M200`s
not as many speed parts sources as there are for TH350-400 plenty of converter choices The case gets a brace or bell housing Visiting Scott Mclay Eng. will be educational Dropping Mark Yacavone a line (after the poll is over, of course) might get you on your way Good luck Mike A114 Last edited by Mike Jones; 03-01-2018 at 11:50 AM. |

I still do build a few of them, but with my situation and location, I can't go out looking for cores. I'm sure there's still a few out there, but I never come across any. All good guys mentioned in this thread, plus a few more. I've dealt with most of them. For parts, I use Leo G. at Remac, Paul Forte, Sonnax, Transtar. Again, all good outfits to deal with. Good luck

Re: metric 200 chevy bolt pattern
How does the TH200 R4 differ from the 4L60E?

Re: metric 200 chevy bolt pattern
It differs by...everything .
It's a 700R4 with electric solenoids, computer operated.

Re: metric 200 chevy bolt pattern
Basically a 200-4R is a 200THM with an overdrive gearset added in front of the 3spd guts . The 4L60-E is based on a 700-R4 which makes the 4 speeds using only 2 planetary gearsets , then adding an electronically controlled valvebody . The most common 4L60-E , has a Chevy bell , but there also is a smaller bell available to hook up to a 3800 V6 .
The 200-4R had two bellhousings available , a composite BOP/Chevy bell and a BOP only bell . All 200-4R's were old school with a governor controlled hydraulic VB . |

My car uses the 4L60E and can make changes via TunerCat. Really like the 3.08 first gear to get my heavy car launched. What kinds of modifications are done to these transmissions to reduce drag yet keep reliability? D |

Re: metric 200 chevy bolt pattern
Using an overdrive automatic , has a lot to do if you use 4th gear . If you don't , then it makes more sense to run a 3 speed and take advantage of lower weight , and less rotational inertia .
