My condolences on your loss
Agreed, we have run a lokar tv cable double nutted through the firewall and attached the the thottle linkage. What you need is an inch and an...
The stripping of a governor gear usually happens when either there is condensation on the drive portion of the output shaft that causes an...
Congratulations, thanks for turning an idea into something of so much benefit for so many.
May he rest in peace and may your family find comfort in your shared memories of his life.
If the trans is a two speed aluminum affair it is the old 2 speed cruisomatic, not really a bad trans, but not really robust or desireable either....
Very cool! Nice to have a partner that shares your enthusiasm, or at least encourages it
The 1993 LT-1 used a 4L60 with a round 5 pin connector on the drivers side where one would normally find the square 4 pin connector. The 4L60E...
Agreed, Fords are especially bad about this, there is a drainback valve in the pump stator that may be hung, put it in gear with the engine...
Lube oil is pumped from the return line of the oil cooler back through the gear train to lubricate the bearings, planetary gears and bushings of...
Nice score, I hope someone keeps this whole and makes a cruiser out of it
Actually, a 1993 could have been either a square or round case connector. LT-1 models had the round connector, V-6 and old style V-8 got the...
By my experience those codes correspond with an 86 and 87 Chevy/GMC van. The 87 model will be the better of the two since this is the year GM made...

Very cool, I love those Falcon wagons

Cool! The only "Deuce in the Woods" I ever found had to be removed from my shoe with a stick...:o
Some S-10's used an 8.5 ring and pinion but only the later models. The last 1997 I parted had the 7.5 as mentioned in the previous post. If you...
I you are running a converter with a stall speed greater than or close to the cruising rpm, it will generate quite a bit of heat, that is the...
There is a very remote posibility that the gear you installed could have broken and get into the plastic governor gear.Pull the governor out and...
Go electric, the lockup oil is available anytime after the first to second shift in the 700 and you wouldn't want your converter clutch to apply...
Try the very best vacuum source you have on the intake, if the kickdown is disconnected and the cable isn't binding, and the governor is in good...
So sorry for your loss, it is hard to lose friends especially so young
Excellence, really enjoyed the post
A 250 and 350 share the same gear ratios. The 250 has smaller capacity clutch packs and a second gear band instead of an intermediate clutch pack...
Hello all, I was turned on to this site by some friends and customers and I feel like I have opened a door into a shop full of like minded gear...
