Used/Reconditioned buddy. The chances of finding new are slim to none, and slim left town. These have long been discontinued by Chrysler.

I have them.

The general rule of thumb is that you want the stall speed to be "around" the same RPM that the engine makes the most torque on an engine Dyno. This is why a Dyno sheet from an engine (not chassis) Dyno is also a very important piece of information to give to your converter builder.

Killed the whole car.

Yes, and yes.

I'd try less clearance in the forward drum--about .015"-.020". No less than that. Any tighter and it may drive forward in neutral. .042" is too much, and "could" have caused the pressure plate to break. You can see it broke right wear the snap ring void is. The wear on the apply piston from...

No, there isn't a way to put it back together properly with the transmission horizontal. It needs to come out of the car and stood up on the output shaft in order to get the clutch packs lined up. The front band will also have to come out to do that correctly.

They have good products. Trust me, I know after being a dealer for them for 25 years. They were also too busy to sell me their products in the 25th year. The first 24 years went great. Launched my web store a few years back and could have sold them a fair amount of products, but they could...

Clean neutral valve bodies are for folks who have aluminum rods as to not decelerate down on the rod. There are several things that should be done with the transmission when going this route. If you have OEM powder forged drums, you definitely do not want to neutralize your transmission at...

To my knowledge that round replacement washer is only available in fiber now. You will be fine to reuse yours.

The pipe plug in the extension housing is to check governor pressure in automatic shift applications. As for the input to output thrust washer, it depends on the year/design of the output shaft.

Depends on the year. What year transmission are you working on? The case casting changed in the pump suction area where the valve body bolts to the case in the 1995-up 42/44 transmissions. It is larger than the 46/47 transmissions. Also, if the 47RH is from a diesel (not a v10) the shift...

The only reason it would come out of the vent is if the fluid level is overfull.

The hub on the converter is likely cracked. Very common problem with the 904 converter.
