1967 Cuda Notch 273 w/904

Now that the TC was off, I could get the valve body off. Before I did that, I notice the fully splined input shaft, so I've got a non-lock up 904. I flipped over the 904, removed the pan, and unbolted the VB. This was my first look inside of a transmission, and much of it is still 'black voodoo magic' to me. It was more fascinating than scary.

To get the pump off, I loosened the front band and slid it back to get to the pump from behind. Since my slide hammer is a POS, I didn't have any attachments to work it from the front. With the band loose, this meant I would remove the direct and forward drum with the pump on the input shaft. It came out pretty easily.
