Turbo 400

I am fairly new to racing. I was wondering if there is anyone that runs a turbo 400 in Super Street.

Yes many racer's use a 400 in SS/T and H/R. but you will need a transbrake.

I've had great success in the past with the TH 400 in S/ST and even S/G and so have several of my customers. ........with the proper setup they work excellent ......Feel free to PM me for more detailed info. .......Tom

I run the 400 with transbrake in my SS/T BB Ford (yes I know it is GM). It’s been very reliable in the 3200 lb Mustang.

I used to do it but have switched over the glide side. A friend of mine uses the 400, shifts to 2nd on time and rpm for 3rd, makes it pretty consistant keeping the rpm down when on the stop and not so crazy when coming back on.

I use a th400 and have had problems with the sprag not holding after about40-50 runs.i put a center support from ati with a bearing on it,its supposed to help...but i will say the car is very consistent and dialable with the th400

Scott, I hope that center support helps you, it was almost a common sight to see you pullin the trans out between rounds.
