Anybody running a 250 with th400?
Hows it do? Good on gas? Could you tow a light vehicle on a trailer with it?

Re: Anybody running a 250 with th400?
I am not running one.... my truck is a 350/th350... but I have read on a few forums that people say a th400 is harder for an engine to turn ... I dont know from experience like I said just sharing what I heard... I am sure somebody else will agree or disagree and we will both find out for sure lol...

Re: Anybody running a 250 with th400?
In terms of auto trannys, the TH400 takes up the most hp, while the PG takes up the least. I've only seen the 250/TH400 once.

Re: Anybody running a 250 with th400?
Yeah Ive heard that.. something like 20% loss from a th400 and 16% from a th350 and even less from a glide.

Re: Anybody running a 250 with th400?
Just my opinion, but my truck has a 350/Turbo 400, and I feel the the 400 is too much tranmission for it. Unless your running a big block or really radical smallblock the 400 will rob way too many horses.
