Umm... my tranny isnt a mess. It was quite clean a month or 2 ago... clean red fluid with really no metal shavings or debris inside the pan.

Sorry if I got my #'s wrong on the space, I don't know them very well and I was searching previous threads when the questions came up before. I will search some more.

I do remember you pointing out a v6 drum before and it made me remember Tony brought over a correct V8 drum...

I am not very knowledgeable on these parts or specs. But Tony who helped me rebuild it is very knowledgeable he was the brains of the operation... I was the muscle (took things apart, loosened bolts and tighted to the ft lbs he told me to).

Neither one of those valve bodies is original to that case. What year is the case? What is the PK number; if it even has one; it's late sixties. IDK if that's the problem or not, but that case doesn't support that valve body separator plate; right in front of the rear servo pin. Internal hemorrhaging!...And bro that fluid is dark.

I have no clue what year the case is, probably a 69 case? Thats the year of the car. On the Turbo action front page of instructions it says for a "1966 and up tf904" non-lockup transmission."

The fluid wasnt that dark and isnt dark currently in the transmission. Maybe it is dark because its on a stained cardboard box and I cleaned the outside of the transmission on it, sprayed the grease off with brake cleaner?

The vb wasnt all the way in the case in thay picture, I was having a hard time sliding it in until I put the transmission back in the car, then it popped right in. The original vb had a seperator plate in it?

Can you explain what you mean when you say "right in front of the rear servo pin? And "internal Hemmoraging."

Why? You don't even think the fluid is dark, and you can't even find a number on the case. Doesn't matter, this isn't going to ever be right.

Cant find a number on the case? Like top of the case? Lol.

Heres a # on the case. I'll check for you later on the top of the case to see if I can read the numbers there, but it may be pretty hard to do so.

Edit- looks like it may be 764-2

28920 are all before 1970. What are the date codes on the valve bodies? It's basically a rhetorical question, I already know what you're going to find...71-77 or thereabouts...different cases tho. Some early bb 727s had provision for the ptk vb tho; might've come from a bb. But who knows if this is the problem? I never take that chance anymore...trying to track down a problem all because of mismatched parts...or it could be internal...I'd get a newer case.

Yes the vb is a newer vb with part throttle kick down. Searching on here multiple people said newer vbs worked in the cases.

I'll get another 904 and rebuild it one day...
 
Was I on that 'multiple people' list?...NOPE...but it DOES work; doesn't it...just not quite right. Cool, some folks are okay with that....Just drill out the plate like transgo says and run the old original valve body.
