Will my T350 handle it?

At the moment my turbo 350 is fairly content sitting behind a 330hp 300ftlb (estimated) 350. As far as I know it has a shift kit and a 3500rpm stall. IF for some reason there was to be 400hp and 400ftlb of torque going through it - would it handle it? The new motor would put the monaro in the 11.8 - 12.0 region at roughly 110-114mph. Anyone pushed a turbo 350 that far without going all out and spending thousands on it? Post away... Brett

Agreed, I think it will hold up fine. T350's are a good box not a T400, but don't have a tendency to crack bell housings either I had a friend with a munro that was originally a 6 and had the good ol "bango" diff behind it, She soon ended up with a worked 350, never changed the diff. He had that car for years and never broke that diff, never mistreated it either however.... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I threw it in anyway with this motor but if i do another one its going to have to get welded. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Its not really a common problem with t350;s though so see how she goes as you said, weld her up Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
