It does say M40 on the trans option.. That is T400 correct? And M35 was T 350 I believe.

Somewhere I have seen a discussion about the M40 designation as referring to the Turbo-Hydramatic transmission and not necessarily which one.

The only 70 Nova to come with a factory Th400 was the Yenko Deuce.

The paperwork on this SS350 states: OM40AB TURBO HYDRA-MATIC.

My 1970 L78 was built with an M40 TH400.....GM Canada documented.

M35 was Powerglide
M38 was TH350
M40 was TH400

Anyone know the rear ratio this Gobi came with?

The POP calls out [CRE] 350/300hp w/TH350 trans...

the trans code on the POP is YOM06...I can't match that up with anything I have.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/321504970936?ssPageName

simple solution to this...just have the guy post a pic of the tranny from the underside...that will settle it.

Wilma

**update..Nastyz28 site has listing for TH350 trans...Y = Toledo Plant TH350 Trans..

http://nastyz28.com/camaro/camaro70.html

as I said before...no TH400 with 350/300hp...only the Deuce

M40 was the way they called out the transmission even if it was a Turbo 350. My '69 Pace Car window sticker for the 350 cubic inch motor has the same M40 designation.

What do you get when it says M38?
