Sounds like you need new tires for starters,also a new driveshaft.You can have one made by DriveLine.I,d get new U-joints also.

Whining?You may have damaged the Trans pump when installing the converter/trans.

See,n its out of the car,have a look at it for any markings or #s.Post what you find or even a pic.

I,ve run a Coan 8 inch 4500 for over 5 seasons.:D

Yes it will bolt right in place.You might have to shorten your driveshaft though.Back when I first put the V8 and 8 3/4 in my 66 Dart,I used a driveshaft from a 73 Dart V8 car.I,ve since gone with a Dana 60 and chrome moly driveshaft.:D

Pushing your luck.It may survive,but that one burnout may end up hooking and snap an axel.My advise would be to at least use C-clip eliminators if keeping the 8 1/4.JMO

When ordering your converter,give them all your engine specs,weight of car,tire size,new gear ratio.This is all important so you get the most from your car.:D

Upper control arms on these cars are notorious for the upper ball joint threads to rot,making the ball joint separating from the control arm....something to check.JMO

This is/was the cost effichant way of getting the 4.5 bbp.OK for a tame street car.JMO Edit:You will need to drill or replace your drums.

Ask here in the parts wanted forum or hit up Mancini,s

The 8 1/4 will be large bolt pattern and the 8 3/4 will be small bolt pattern,unless axels on the 8 3/4 have been swapped already.Something to check before jumping in.

Put a bit of the Right Stuff on the bolts and reinstall...has worked for me.:D

Nope nothing wrong after 1500 1/4 mile passes.

I have washers as spacers between my flex plate and converter.(SFI f.plate and 8 inch Coan verter)

Yes..one weight.Guess I should,ve mentioned this was for an external balanced 360 :oops:

Hi Wally...I ran a stock flex plate with a 2500 stall with the weight on it with no problems.The converter was purchased from The Converter Man in Toronto.Just sayin :D

Get the 904 rebuild cause you already have one in your car,so no parts,linkage,driveshaft swapping.My advise to you is keep it simple...rebuilt with new belts,clutches and a Trans-Go 2 shift kit.A 2500-3000 stall converter will work fine with a stock 318,340,360.:D

Upgrade from the 7 1/4 is normal amongst the A- body crowd.Find a used 8 1/4 or 8 3/4 for cheaper.Heck I have a Dana 60 built in my car for 2k...Look in the Mechanical parts for sale forum for a better deal local.

It sounds like you found the right width from an A-body...52 5/8 flange to flange,then add the two 2 inch drums = 56 5/8 :D

A 12x8 inch cooler is what I use..no issues.I also use stainless flex hoses for my lines.:D

Need more info about the car...like how old/new the brakes are? Condition of car? (Was it sitting in a field for 30 yrs?)All info will help diagnos your problem.

I would spray it down with a pressure washer,maybe soak with stain remover?

Yes I agree also that a 2500 stall seems about right,but I,m concerned about the 18 inch tires with a 3.55 gear. I feel the 18 inch wheels will lower your rear gear some,so I still feel that you should speak with an expert in this field for best performance.Remember...it's a key piece with your...

Call a well known convertor shop (Ultimate,Dynamic,Coan), give them your engine specs(mostly cam)gear size,tire size and your intended use for the car(street/strip or race).Your convertor is a key piece to the performance of your car,so be truthful when explaining use of the car.Good luck.:D.

Cheetah...hands down.

Maybe you should ask him how his 8 3/4 held out,while drag racing his Hemi,s.

Early Hemi,s weren,t running 650hp,also the Hemi 4 speed cars came with a Dana60.

Many high HP cars running braced 8 3/4,4 link,latter bar setups with no issues.I went with a Dana60 after having my own issues with a 8 3/4...now have piece of mind after 2 seasons...no issues.JMO

I also got some good advise from Rob(crackedback)while doing my mini tub and 8 3/4 narrowing.I ended up going 46 5/8 which is 3 inches off each side.I run 12 inch rims with 4.5 backspace.Now have done the same with a Dana60.:D

The 402/318 will be internal balanced..No?Your best to send out the converter to the ConverterMan in TO to have it built to the specs of your engine build,cam specs,tire and gear size.This way you will get max performance from your build.Also I would get an SFI approved flywheel(thicker) for the...
