The TH400 is designed to have an forced 1-2 up shift when in manual low. This can be eliminated by grinding two flats on the 1-2 shift valve and...
With the modulator unhooked you will have very high pressure in reverse wish could cause problems.
Make sure your flex plate isn't installed backwards.
Happy birthday John! Have a good one.
Yes you will have to remove the valve body because theres a bolt under it holding the center support in. Without the valve body it's best to take...
Is it a drilled hole or a factory hole? And is the kit meant for a '67 C4, because pre '70 and '70 and up C4 valve body's are different.
For a nice quick and firm second gear shift (not HARD like a B&M kit does) you will need "A" good accumulator spring, good line pressure, a good...
If the timing tab is 3/4" away from the balancer then the tab is probably meant for the larger 8" truck balancer. Get the correct tab and check...
Scam... Do a search on here with the words "Scam UK".
Reversing the pump gears is not a very good solution for the problem you have... You should have added spacers between the converter and...
Happy Birthday, John.
And ask him to also do the "full time lube mod". Like i said earlier in the thread the restriction limits lube oil, usualy this is not a problem...
No, the oil first go's in to the converter then thru the cooler circuit and then to the lube circuit, if the cooler gets plugged the valve...
Ok, i just pulled one of those pumps apart and i come to the conclusion that it's not a pressure relief valve but a cooler bypass valve. So it's...
I have no experience with the relief valve but in my opion the restrictor mod is a proven fix and if the restirctor mod was used the special...
If it is a Transgo shift kit not meant for a towing/motorhome somethings should be corrected. And if it B&M shift kit i would definitely remove...
Because your going to restrict the converter feed your also restricting the lube oil. And because it's for a motorhome he could do the full time...
Good point. Also too much clearance or wear at the pump gears can cause problemes with the thrust bearing, even in stock applications. And...
The friction plates in a automatic transmission are paper based and glued to a plate, same with the bands. DON'T ever put laquer thinner in a...
I usually start with checking if the center of the output is threaded for a bolt on yoke. No threads, then no collar! If it's threaded the...
That is the 3-2 downshift valve spring, valve pin and bore plug. The 3-2 valve is probably still in the valve body. But you will have to pull the...
The fluid level should be approx equal to the pan flange. With the transmission in park and fluid up to temperature loosen a couple of pan bolts...
I don't have a magneto jet, but i did find this Vertex coil. Could someone tell me for what type of magneto this coil is? Or is it not for a magneto?
Happy Birthday Brucie!
If it's dripping the float level is to high or the needle and seat are dirty or worn and are not able to seal and letting too much fuel in the...
Ryan, Thanks for this great place you created. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family. And Happy Thanksgiving to all Hamb (family) members.
I asked my Magic 8 ball if the sbc will be used on the salt flats and it said "Absolutely" Then i asked if the sbc will go in a roadster and it...
