Speaking of Rob, anymore work on the "Robcat" or is that long gone?
Or better yet a 5-speedPut a 4 speed in it.
If you're gonna poke in a grinder, then why not the 5? Although, even the Direct Connection "blue bible" discouraged that swap due to the challenges of getting the right parts, angles correct, and all that. We can dream, right?!Or better yet a 5-speed

Anything is possible if you throw enough money$ at it. MaybeIf you're gonna poke in a grinder, then why not the 5? Although, even the Direct Connection "blue bible" discouraged that swap due to the challenges of getting the right parts, angles correct, and all that. We can dream, right?!

I recently had a really bad time with a 727 pan I tried all the tricks and the bastard still seeped.
I fixed it so it never bothers anyone again.

A little Hylomar goes a long way. Spread a small bead and then smear it out with your finger. Let it sit for about 10 min. to let the solvents evaporate and bolt together.
We used hylomar on Harleys forever but the yamabond motorcycle case sealer is what really did the trick.
The silicone transmission pan gaskets with the torque limiting grommets and a milled cast aluminum pan (aluminum, not Chinesium) have been rock solid for me.
I have wondered if omitting the gasket entirely and using the atf-rtv with a cast aluminum pan like late models would work.
Knowing my luck that would leak too! HahaPut a clutch in it.
There. That covers it. LOL
I was joking....Yeah, about 8.3 pound feet.
Reading about all these leaking oil pans....the wonder sealant Hylomar....makes me happy that I have used simple, cheap, reliable silicon [ on it's own ] for decades....& get no leaks.
