I recently purchaced an 82' sport coupe from a friend that went into the army. The car had a strong 350 in it and no transmission. There was a th350 in the car at one time so I went ahead and had a th350 built by a local shop to replace what was in the car. The only problem with the whole install was that when I bought the car It also had no trans filling tube. The guy at the trans shop gave me a tube from a th350 but I installed it and it leaks pretty bad. I can see that it's not sitting in the fill hole straight. Is the fill hole in the same spot as the th200 that was originally in the car? If that was so then I should be able to get an original filling tube from an 82 sport coupe and my problem should be solved. Also does anyone have a tube that will work for me? I figured I should ask while I've got everyones attention:D

the bends are prob a little differant, but a Mr. Gasket chrome tube fits fine. i replaced that Crappy TH200 with a TH350 too and had to buy this one to work.

How about Lokar? They make flex tubes that attach to the firewall. For easy filling, they have a special funnel.
