Since I put in an 518A into the 69 Valiant. I discover that the speedometer cable is to short. I tried routing it 7 way to Sunday. No Joy! I need a longer cable assy. or extension/adapter. Help please! :prayer:

A-518...Lokar 727 firewall kit

Thanks guys, got it.

Please forgive me. I put a A518 in my car and am about to install the B&M Pro Shifter. I have no referances and the car came as a rooler. Where is the park position on the shifter arm on the transmission. All the way forward? Or all the way aft? Thanks :prayer:

This might help. It list transmission application by part number and where to locat that part number. Cheers

I've had a design set back and could use your advice. I need to cut some of the transmission hump out to get the clearance and better align the drive shaft. With out cutting the hump and having 0.250" clearance I had a drive shaft angle of 10 degree. I understand it should be 5 degree max or...

Wow! Welding a flex plate is gutsy...I had the same issue with the flexplate the second time around but, I checked it on the converter first and marked. I must of got it right on the first install. Some luck...lol. Me 2 lesson learned.

......yes. both flex plates are stamped "Engine Side". I was a good thing I checked......I had the wrong flex plate installed correctly......:oops: FYI

News Flash! I drove over to http://www.mopacautosupply.com/index.html yesterday and talked with Chris Lunn, resedent Mopar expert that has a 69 Dart, LA 360, 727. Turns out my flexplate is on correct but, it is the wrong P/N flexplate. The one in my picture is for a externaly balanced engine...

I was wondering that as well because I tried it both ways. No there was not any stamp or marking stating "front" or "engine" side. Maybe B&M's tech rep is smoking Draino or something. :wack: will continue my research......

B&M has spoken: Brad, Yeah that is definitely on backwards. John Couch B&M RACING & PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS 9142 INDEPENDENCE AVENUE CHATSWORTH, CA 91311 USA T 818-882-6422 EXT 365 F 818-882-6694 [email protected] Not getting any sleep last night paid off. Easy fix at this time...

LOL....50 50 guys. Do I need to rotate? Why?

I'm not feeling all warm and fuzzy but, did I install this flexplate correctly? :prayer:

Other than the two big weights on the mounting side. I found this little weight on the other side of the starter gear. Does the little weight stay or go? Thanks again for you help on this one. Brad

LOL,,,,Thanks.....I meant 5.9,,,,LOL. That's Nasty Mustang numbers....LOL. So if the engine is internaly balanced there should be "NO" weights on the torque converter. Why arwe they there? Brad J.A.F.O....LMAO

I was going to bolt up my A518 transmission to my Magnum 5.0, no stroked, All Eagle and internal balanced, B&M flex plate but, the torque converter has weights welded to it and the weights are thicker than the 4 bolt mounts...GEE! I wanted to get this done. My question is do I need the TC...

Thank you but, that is not what I was looking for. I have a brand new Mopar Performance A518 transmission. It's the lower transmission cross member modification I need to know about. I guess there is some cut & chop required. I do not care if it's all Mopar at this stage. I'm using a...

I've tried that. Hard to sift through and find good pictures,. I though this way I could get them direct. I'm still looking for any advice & pics. Thanks

Could you guys post some pictures or point me in the right direction for modifying the transmission mount to install an A518 (46RE) transmission in my 69 Valiant. I have the upper cross section cut out already. :prayer:

LMAO! :cheers:

I was dusting off some old books and found Mopar Chassies, Carroll Shelby's speed secrets (P/N: P4349341) Like winning the lotto. I scanned the pages related the drive shaft alignment but, the files are way to big to post here. If you want, PM me with your e-mail and I will be happy to send...

That's great info & threads, thank you. I'm guessing everything is different with a 4 bar rear end suspenion. 4 bar is new to me and it looks like the pinion shaft angle moves very little if at all when the rear end moves up and down. Staying relitivly fixed. It also looks like I can adjust...

I tried searching using several search word combinations. It's kind of hit & miss. The thread may not mention what I'm looking for but, I always find a peice of the puzzel. Can you suggest a thread spacific you might know of. Thank you all

YIKES! I really did no want or expect having to cut the floor. It loos like the support hasd 4 spot welds at the top attaching it to the floor. That's all I can "spot" so far. Did you have to modify the transmission case? Cheers & thanks for the pic, very helpful Brad

I was very luck to find a NOS 518 MP HP transmission & converter for $1,300.00 localy. I'm told I have to cut part of the cross member out of the body and modify the transmission mount. Question is. How much and where? I was also told to frim off the manufacturing cast ears from the...

I could use the sane advice as Bill too.
