I have a 59 Suburban. I have replaced the rear axle with 2.92 gears. I'm looking for an engine drivetrain combo that will get me good mileage. My burb will be a daily driver with occassional light towing. Engine of choice is a sb350. What tranny should I use? OD? I have a good deal on a 200 4R and TH350.

If you can get It built "bullet proof" go 200R4
with all the performance upgrades.
And like was stated need bigger rear gear.
TH-350 is good but (that word again)
If you do lots of highway driving
u might want the O.D. Trans.
But(I used it again)
Towing (heavy) Trailers
Good Trans cooler is a must have item. :thumbup:
Go 383 if you are towing alot
or build your 350 for max. torque
