    Lokar Kickdown adjustment

    Thank you, @12many! This makes a lot more sense than what I've read so far - including the Lokar instructions. They should just print yours word for word. Gonna go measure and drill now.

    Lokar Kickdown adjustment

    I have a Lokar kickdown cable in my '65 Barracuda, 318 w/ Edelbrock 1406 carb, cable shifted A904. It's never been adjusted correctly, I used to just leave a bit loose/ longer at the carb side, so it would shift when I wanted it to. Now I want to fix that and I read somewhere here that I might...

    1965 small block A904 leak

    So I went into the garage, took apart and inspected the nasty, grimy slant 6 A904 of the same year that was in the car before. My initial question is answered - there is no bolt that could be tightened. Appears to be somewhat of a design flaw. Below you can see where it is seeping out on the...

    1965 small block A904 leak

    I cleaned up everything and it's definitely coming out of the bottom right of the extension housing (see image below). The question is whether there is a extension housing bolt behind the parking lock cable housing that can not be accessed from the outside?

    1965 small block A904 leak

    I have a pretty bad transmission fluid leak in my '65 Barracuda with a small block and the correct 1965 cable shifted A904. I'm pretty sure later years are different and probably easier to fix. The transmission was fully rebuilt last year with all new gaskets (by someone else). I started the...

    '65 A904 park lock cable housing

    You're welcome - by the way I think your spring is fine. That's just what they look like

    '65 A904 park lock cable housing

    I took some photos before I took it out of the (very gross) slant transmission to put it in the V8 one. I hope this helps.

    '65 A904 park lock cable housing

    Ok, so I got the housing and spring etc installed. Ran into the next issue: the V8 transmission didn't come with a dipstick, the slant 6 dipstick is too long for the V8 tube and the slant 6 tube doesn't fit with the exhaust manifold. I ordered a small block dipstick off ebay, but it arrived and...

    '65 A904 park lock cable housing

    Well, it just took quite a bit of prying, but it eventually came off. Then I spent way too much time cleaning this thing, but it was just too gross.

    '65 A904 park lock cable housing

    I had a '65 cable shifted V8 A904 rebuilt for my '65 Barracuda, but it was missing the park lock cable housing. So I was planning on using the one from the '65 cable shifted slant 6 A904 that was in the car. I had no issues getting the cable out per instructions from the FSM, but housing/ cover...

    Torque Converter for daily driver?

    Do you have a part number? I'm having a hard time figuring out where to find one and one that's also in stock. And many that are listed are for 727s and not the 904. I guess the specs to look for are: 11" converter diameter. Non Lock-Up converter type. Thick mounting. 27 splines. Is that...

    Torque Converter for daily driver?

    I'm about to put a '69 318 in my '65 Barracuda. I'm having a 1965 V8 A904 rebuilt with a later, larger input shaft. The car has a sure grip 7-1/4" rear with 2.76 gears (I think). It's my daily driver and I won't be racing it, so what's a good torque converter? I'm really just looking for best...

    Clunk Noise

    I have the same problem... I'm guessing it might be a bad differential, but I don't know for sure.
