Torque Converter interchange.. TH350-C and 700r4

Can anyone tell me if a stock converter for a TH350C will work on an early (83) 700r4?

 

In a word, NO. 7004r's use a lockup converter. It's a totally different converter than TH350 uses.

Good luck with your project. ........Jack

 

yeah, but the 350 "C" is a lockup, otherwise I wouldn't consider it. I just didn't know if the splines were different or if it worked the same way?? I had a later 30 spline converter, put that in last night and it just spun.. I have the 350C converter here so I was going to try it, but I didn't know if it was the same as the 27 spline in the 700..

 

NO it will not.....

 

why, are the splines different? will it physically not fit? could you elaborate?

thanks

 

350 is an old non-metric design, 700 is a metric design, uses a completely different pump. different size splines, hub, etc

 

gotcha, thanks once again squirrel. Looks like i need to go buy a new converter.
