If your not shooting for 8s,Build a turbo 350,Its lighter and has better gearing than a 400.

If money is not an object,build the 2004r

Well you don't need a 400 with your mods unless you plan on something big in the future. 400 is not only stronger but much cheaper to rebuild/refresh.

200-4R is great for cruising and power into the high 9's, 75mph at 2200 rpm is pretty nice with mid 20 mpg and lower tranny temps. If you plan on keeping your GN and drive more on the street with some 1/4 mile passes into the 10's, the 200 is the way to go as the MPG over the years will probably pay for some of the upgrades needed for it to live.
