    E body 8 3/4 value

    It's not worth as much as a A body housing in my opinion. Most of the E body's came with an 8 3/4 so they seem to be more of them around. I often see them for sale. As far as what it's worth it depends on the demand in you're area. I do think you did good on you're purchase though

    Can anyone help me with a Hurst Promatic 2?

    The problem is the console itself it mounts to the shifter and you find a way to relocate it moves the shift indicator that's mounted on the shifter.

    Can anyone help me with a Hurst Promatic 2?

    Here you go That's in park That's in drive. I used an E body handle and it machined the end to match the Promatic handle. I like the placement a lot better but it hits the back of the console and it won't go into 1st, I my have to do some cutting :rolleyes:

    Can anyone help me with a Hurst Promatic 2?

    I know this question was a bit out there but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. I did figure it out. In case anyone wants to know the pin has a larger diameter toward the head that you can't see with shifter assembled which has to go through 2 plates. I had to remove it to lineup the plates on a...

    Can anyone help me with a Hurst Promatic 2?

    I modified a pistol grip handle to fit on a Promatic 2 shifter, but I'm having trouble putting it back together. The main pin (the one that fits in the slot ) won't go in far enough to allow the snap ring to go on. It's sticking out and won't slide in all the way in! Tried tapping and rotating...

    U-joint?

    I did talked to the mechanic who worked on it. He told me that was still a tight fit, but not a press fit and it would be fine. He felt that it came loose because the clip probably wasn't installed correctly in the 1st place., and from what I've seen with this car I'm not all that suprised...

    U-joint?

    So I've been doing some searching, I take it a 7260 type yoke is what I need right? How may spines should it have?

    U-joint?

    A couple of tacs shouldn't heat it up too much, do you think?

    U-joint?

    Do you think a couple tac welds would be a good assurance, til I can get a replacement? Does and one hava sugestions as to where I can get a new one? I have a 833 4spd, with a 8.75 rear (it's a Challenger but I would think an a body would be the same).

    U-joint?

    Had a front U-joint come loose on me the other day. Fortunately it didn't come of completely before I was able to pull off the road:steering: I went ahead and had it towed to a shop and they were able fix it by just replacing the joint. One thing concerns me however, they told me that they...

    Please me some torque on converters

    It's a 904 transmission, and all these came out a 904. As far as the spines the transmission is out of later model 73 Duster so I think they'll fit.

    Please me some torque on converters

    This is in a an early A, the 727 doesn't fit without modification so I'm using a 904. And guys this is not a race car and I'm thinking a stock converter will suit my needs just fine, I'm just wanted to find a way to determine the stall.

    Please me some torque on converters

    Neither of them have external weights other than the thin strips in the photos. The high stall that was with the 340 (73 externally balanced) go figure. One of them I have no knowledge of. The gray one came out of the an old drivetrain I had in the car that drove fine, but I didn't drive it...

    Please me some torque on converters

    I'm the process of swapping out externally balanced 340 for a internally balanced for 408. I have 3 converters the one used on tge 340 seems to have a high stall, and the other two are supposedly stock 318 converters. I know very little about tq's, and there are no significant markings to tell...

    TQ Advice

    So you all know I have an 65 Barracuda, and a 727 won't fit without some modification. I do have 904 out of a 73 318 Duster.

    TQ Advice

    Is this similar to a 360 converter, and will it fit a 904? Please excuse my ignorance with this I dealt with automatics much

    TQ Advice

    I've done the searches and there's just to much information to sort through. I'm currently in the process of switching over a high revving 340 to a street driven 408 making no more than 400 horsepower. The car had a 3500 stall converter and I want to switch it to a 2000 because this is going...

    B&M Flex plate Question

    Thanks all, that's what I figured, the tech guy I called at B&M didn't seem to know anything and he told me I'd have to use a 360 converter with it! I have 71 LA 360 block by the way.

    B&M Flex plate Question

    I have a stock 360 block that I'm bolting to a 904 trans and I'm looking into aftermarket TQ's. From what I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong) all SBM flex plates are the same (unbalanced and the needed balancing is on the converter). B&M has a PN 10239 for this application...

    73 340 vs. 360 converter.

    I have 73 cast crank 340 in my car, and have 360 block I'm thinking of using to build a stroker. My question is does the 340 use the same torque converter, or are they balanced differently than the 360?
