Yea it does have a 8.25, I have a 79 cordoba with a "k" 360 2bbl, its a DOG off of the line but does pretty well on the highway.

Bump

the A500 is from an 318 88 van I have supporting paper work saying it was rebuilt in 2000, it now sits with 56000 miles. I have a 79 doba with a rebuilt 360 short block, Im assuming it was rebuilt stock. I have added a summit cam 6901, performer intake and thermoquad I plan to add 302...

really? good to know, im working on a b body by the way well i guess its just a coincidence that it started acting up after the intake swap.... OH i also changed my brake booster which was a B***H, but it did require me to roughly handle wires sometimes.. do you thing i could have messed up...

Hello all, im finally ready to get my car back on the road I noticed my gas guage stays at empty no matter what when in fact it worked for sure before the the intake swap i also had problems getting my temp gauge working but i eventually hooked up the right doo-dad to the golden stud to the...

cool so full rebuild it is, im kinda tired of trying to diagnose it im just about to go through with the build, now i need a nice kit, so trans go is the one to go with?

sooooo i should go with a full rebuild kit, i recently talked to someone and they're input was, the fact that the car sat so long before being active the internal seals are leaking....so should i just grab a seal replacement kit? honestly it does make a little sense seeing as how it drives...

I guess 600 isn't that bad but I seen a kit with new gear for around 150 to 200...add that plus a weekend or 2 and we have a bargain!...so what's a good kit since I have a garage to work in now

Ok I decided I'm ging to rebuild it...now wit the symptoms ihave what would be the best rebuild kit? I found some as low as $38 but those only include seals, but do I need new gears if they work? I just drove the car 3 blocks back and forth and was able to park it, though on the first 3 block...

.......this might be dumb and I know its all mechanical but do you think some kind of wiring problem coul be a cause.....after te engine rebuild my gas gauge has been on E all the damn time! It was fine before

Well I guess it has to produce some flow on start up because it shifts properly but later it doesn't.....what does that mean?

sorry about the delay i checked the fluid level while the car was off and cool, the level was above the line, and i KNOW for a fact that while its running that it just right so i guess the pump is working

ok i will post back in about an hour, hopefully i can get pics of the fluid level

no it doesent hesitate to move on cold start up, it also has no problem when engine is warmed up after it sits Never have to rev it on cold start up, and once the trans starts acting stupid its kind of hit and miss, it may seems like rev engages it but it really doesnt fluid levels look just...

i have never taken the pan off the trans, i always thought the trans was untouched but i just heard from the previous driver that the trans has had a "rebuild" in the last 2-4 years before it was in my possession, i know for a fact that the trans hasnt been touched in 2 years....also i think the...
