    Mopar Perf. A500 Pan??

    Came across this pan on a trad. It measures 4.75" deep. I searched the part number but can't find any details. I'm assuming it's an A500 pan but the catalog that I have lists a different part number (see pic). Usually mopar will put part# replaced by part# but I am unable to find it in this...

    Torqueflite A500 pan issues solved

    I installed an RH42 (A500) OD 4 speed automatic in my 1970 Dart. It took some work and fabrication, but nothing terrible. Problem is that these transmissions have a lot of stuff hanging out of the bottom of the trans where a regular valve body would be and then cover it up with a really deep...

    Beefing up A500 overdrive

    I have read a few articles that suggest the overdrive on a 42RH can be rebuilt to be as strong as that on a 46RH. The larger part of this seems down to fitting more clutches and steels. It seems there are different thicknesses of these but also at least 3 different designs of direct clutch...

    Sonnax manual valve for A500 transmission.

    I have just bought Sonnax Manual Valve 22771-09 and pressure regulator valve 22771A-02K so that my A500 will fill in park. Anyone know what is involved in fitting these? Can it readily be done with the transmission in the car or do I need to wait for when I get it overhauled?

    A500/A518 Aftermarket Overdrive Ratios

    Hi, working on installing an A500 behind a 318 with 4.56 gears. From what researched I gathered the standard ratio for the 4th gear overdrive is .69. Did mopar offer vehicles with a better ratio lower than .69? I saw the gear vendors unit is .72 which is higher. Are there any aftermarket gear...

    did Dodge ever make a skid plate to protect A500 (42RH) trans pans

    I put a 42 RH trans in my Dart. The factory pan is really deep to contain the additional stuff for the 4 speed overdrive. The plug in the pan sticks out of the bottom of the pan and I finally snagged it on something. It is the lowest thing under my car, just below the exhaust pipes. Does...

    A904 to A500 conversion - trans cooler lines

    So as indicated I'm putting an A500 (RH42) into my 70 Dart which originally had a A904. I have a set of new lines for a 70 Dart with a 727 and it seems that the lines are bent in a way that I can use them all the way up to the K-frame. At that point I was going to transition to rubber lines to...

    Is this an A500?

    As the title states, does this look like an A500? It's listed locally, guy says it came out of an 89 Dakota with a 3.9 v6. I'm looking for a core A500 to build and swap in my car, this one is cheap and close but I'm not 100% sure. Appreciate any help you all can provide.
