    Sure Grip unit feels much better than Eaton TruTrac did..

    Mine is fine. They only want you to use Lucas oil. Andrew

    Good converter for the street?

    Competition Transmission (Carl) will. I was going to have him tweak my Dynamic converter. He is in NY state as well. Andrew

    Schumacher transmission mounts

    Mike replied and said it is fine due to wear tear and grease and oil soak. Nice place to do business with. Andrew

    Schumacher transmission mounts

    i just received my new transmission mount from Schumacher and it is 1/2” taller than the original stock one. Wondering if this is going to cause any issues for me with clearances? Thanks Andrew

    Torque converter runout

    Next plan, pads are painted, so I will probably take a skim off on the lathe. I will remove the paint first. Not sure how much the flexplate is intended to absorb

    Torque converter runout

    Thanks for the input. That is exactly where I am at. Right now it is running out at .013” right out of the box. I am going to have someone else check it for a sanity check. I spoke to the manufacturer and they said it would be fine as is,

    Torque converter runout

    Thanks for the post guys. I am not performing the runout check, someone else is. This is how he checks for runout. I have access to a lathe a will look at the mounting plate idea. Here are a couple of other photos. I do not know enough about this process and how critical it is or isn’t, hence...

    Torque converter runout

    What are your thoughts on checking runout and what would be considered acceptable?

    Lucas 85-140 conventional gear lube any good?

    Eaton wants you to run Lucas oil with their true trac. I called them and I had to remove the valvoline from mine. I think the other option they mentioned was a shell product.

    Kilduf shifter

    I’m having a RMVB put in the transmission right now. Looks like it may be easy / fun on the street. Plus, I think they look great and seam solid.

    Kilduf shifter

    I’m looking at one for my dart as well. Looks like they did one for a 68 Dart for SEMA. Looking for more feedback. Thanks

    Sure Grip unit feels much better than Eaton TruTrac did..

    When I purchased my truetrac, I called them about the limited slip additive and told them I had put valvoline gear oil in. They told me that I needed to drain the valvoline out and use Lucas oil (no additive) or Shell in order to avoid any issues. I followed their recommendations and all seams...

    Sure Grip unit feels much better than Eaton TruTrac did..

    I have one with no issues at 600 hp. Motor is out and stepping up to 700 for spring. Not sure what the concern is? I called them and they said to only use Lucas oil and not valvoline.... seams to work fine. Pick the phone up and call them and use your own judgement.

    What shifter/trans upgrades are you using

    Did anyone end up with a Kilduff shifter? I’d like to see how it was integrated into the center console if possible. Thanks. Andrew

    snubber?

    When I had one on my car, it was adjustable and I wrapped tape around the small end and then assembled it and installed. No rattles.

    727 Transmission and 600+ hp on the street

    Transbrake? Would it be fun on the street to mess around with, or a waste of time and money?

    Thanks, I have both already.

    727 Transmission and 600+ hp on the street

    I had the transmission fully rebuilt and had the Trans go 2 kit installed. The car is mini tubed with Caltracs and QA1 shocks and 325/15/50 Street Radials. Still probably won't hook up, but it won't be like driving in the snow either. Andrew

    727 Transmission and 600+ hp on the street

    Any reconditions on what is required for a 727 on the street? I currently have a 68 transmission for my big block with a trans go 2 kit in it. Any chance of it surviving? Andrew

    Eaton Truetrac into 489 Case

    Cool, I ended up calling eaton as I installed mine last weekend and wanted to reassure what I had done. I went from a 3:55 to a 4:30 so I would see a noticeable difference for running around town. I still have my other chunk intact to swap out for longer trips if needed. Can't wait to try it out...

    Eaton Truetrac into 489 Case

    The spacer is around 1" or so and is the diameter of the axle. Search truetrac on this sight. You will find similar replys. If you have green bearings that are adjustable, I do not think you need the spacer.
