Th350 to manual swap question

[roundhouse]

I will be sure to check that out roundhouse, thanks  ... Also, what transmission would you guys suggest?(used from a salvage yard of course). preferably 5 or 6 speed but I also don't want to break the bank.

Nv3500.  From a 97-07 full size Chevy pickup

Are nv3500 stout enough? I'm working on trading some parts for my friends 388 stroker long block and heard nv3500 tend to scatter past 400lbs..

Several folks using em

Depends on how you treat it

GM put em behind the V-8 in the pickups

Throwing another option in... Picked up 2 doors today from a k30 dump truck at the local scrap yard. He offered me the entire manual linkage setup including everything minus the tranny for $200 pulled. What would be a semi-budget tranny that accepts manual linkage? ($500 and under)The other yard is roughly 120 miles out and im not 100% positive it was hydraulic either...
