Ill give it a look..and for the record I am using the Lokar cable bracket. Ad for picture reference LOKAR Edelbrock Carb Bracket and Springs TCB-40DQ 847087003346 | eBay

Got about 75 miles on my home brew 904. Recently started a no load (no throttle ....as in coming to a red light) downshift 3-2. Its not harsh...but feels like I dropped it into 2 at exactly 30 mph. Normal? I was thinking I may have the D/S cable (yes its converted) a little tight? Thoughts...

Many many thanks to Duster346. You are certainly a gentleman...and scholar. I will be purchasing all my future trans needs from you.

I would greatly appreciate that!

Little more research on my part shows that sonnax number is for a 727. Does anyone know if they make one for a 904? Or have a spare 904 servo? For a 1969 (small diameter servo)?

Well...it isnt a valve..but close! I think I found the issue. The second gear servo pin was stuck in the out position...and appears slightly bent. Guess I need a servo. The 727 servo is the same one right? I have a 727 core to pull from...or I could spend more money on a Sonnax 7722830.

Does it mix with type F or should I go back to dex...whatever dex revision they are up to now?

First Tqflite 904 rebuild in 30 years. I got a good kit with alto frictions and kyolene steels. All new seals, all measurements fell within spec. There was already a proven TF-2 kit in the valvebody which remained intact. I added a CRT multi spring to the front as the big anti wound coil was...

I appreciate that.

There should have been a lol at the end there...missed it in the proofread...prolly forgot my glasses....meant to be jokey...js.

The servo....which drives the kickdown lever, which pushes the strut that clamps the forward band...through alliteration...became the kick down servo.

904....downshift front band servo

I believe its the downshift servo (with the pop out pin). The one that came out is no longer useable...dont ask..lol. Anyone have a spare?

Ok guys....many thanks.. I am headed to the machine shop in the morning to have .025 step cut off the flywheel. So .055 total with four .083 solid red Altos, and the fully loaded CRT multi spring....oughta git er done. Or should I go .030 for .060 clearance?

EXACTLY Id probably do .035 off the piston...and the rest off the flywheel.
