Ol' Fart's Firebird Fantasy

OK guys, I need some help here with some info that may help me and others. I just got involved in a tranny discussion. The OP wanted to know which tranny to run behind his 700hp Pontiac, a TH400 or a Glide. He was afraid the Glide would slow him down. I suggested a TH350, and posted 3 links with TH350's rated at 800hp +.

But one guy basically said the TH350 is junk and won't stand 700hp. I even posted the link of a guy telling about his Turbo Action TH350 that had held up for 3 seasons with 1000hp. But there are a lot of unbelievers.

I assume that lots of you SS guys are running TH350's with somewhere in the neighborhood of 700hp. So I need posts that I can copy and paste, with some of ya'll telling about your sucess with a SS TH350 tranny.

So, can anybody give me some directions on how to find such info on this site ? Thanks !
