Jetaway swap?
hey all i have a 1969 cutlass with (or had) a jetaway which is pretty well dead. im gonna swap to either a th350 or a th400 but i cant decide which will be better. obviously the 400 is the better choice but im not sure how easy itll bolt in considering im low on cash. the one im looking at is from a '77 firebird. any information would help. thanks!

The TH400 requires a shorter driveshaft, different front yoke, and different e-brake cables (due to the relocated crossmember).

Same advice for my 68, Joe?
I remember test driving my Cutlass S before buying it. I thought it was kinda weird that the tranny was not shifting right. It would only go into second gear. I looked at the shift indicator and thought "Awwwww crap! It's only a friggin two speed!!!"
Who springs for an S with buckets and a two speed?!?!?!

Thats pretty funny but I have you beat. My 68 Cutlass was purchased as a convertible, with bucket seats (power drivers side), and power windows. Oh, and a crappy two speed....And yes, a crappy inline 6 cylinder. One of only 400 cheap skates that bought a convertible with a 6 cyl. The good part is that the 2 speed is turning into a 4 speed and the 250cu.in. 6 is turning into a 455.
