Re: 383 and 3 speed tranny holding up?
Yep, all depends on how you drive. It definitely won't stand up to the abuse that 383 can dish out. But that's the beauty of more torque. You can run it down low and go. But you also have to watch lugging. That puts a big strain on a trans. You won't need to be dumping the clutch and banging gears to run it out good. It'll go! The combo of strong low end and taller gear will balance out
