$1000.00 should buy you a nice th400 and the gv is (ouch) $2200.00. This is
spendy too but you end up with a final ratio of . 78 to 1(22%).
That's what I'd do if I had a BB in my car...TH-400's are the best trannies ever built by GM...$3200 is good for both and you won't have to change all your stuff around.
I am not for transferring the new tech stuff into the older cars. I detest computers in cars..... there's some younger guys on the Elky lists with the computer & smog year (80-87) Elkys....all they do is try and figure out why something on their CCC cars isn't right. It may be ok for them to do that, but I don't have the patience or the time.
Stick with the 400 and get an OD unit to go behind it...you'll spend less time in the shop and more on the road!!
Still two Elkys
