    FABO Transmission Builder?

    There was a member on here that once sold me a really good street/strip 904 transmission he built. I can't remember his name but I believe he was located in Pennsylvania. Anyone know him? I think his first name is Stan? Trying to get in touch with him to see if He'll build me a 727 for a...

    904 Transmission Leak

    I'm not really sure yet. Going to get it back in the air tonight and look. It appears to be the pan but I thought it was strange that it starts to leak after sitting a few days.

    904 Transmission Leak

    I'm getting my street/strip 71 Dart back on the road and ready to compete in Drag week this year for the 4th year in a row. I didn't think the car was leaking any fluids... first few test drives and the underneath was spotless. The car sat in my car port for 4 days then I noticed a puddle...

    Anything wrong with the 8-3/4 "741" case?

    Nothing wrong with them for your intended use. I drag raced a 741 case into the 11s with my dart and never broke it. Stock small bolt pattern axles too... lol

    I just did find this TCI that says it will work with either 727 or 904. Anyone used this one? TCI Forged Flexplates 145200

    SFI flex plate Question

    my new combo will be an internally balanced 360 based 410 stroker built for boost. I'll be running a Cope built 904. Can someone recommend an SFI flex plate for internal balance, 6 bolt crank, and 904? I've looked at B&M 10230 but it is for 727 converter. The 10231 says it will work for...

    8 3/4 Diff strengths?

    I've made hundreds of passes in the very low 12s and high 11s with my bone stock 741. This is also on stock axles with small bolt pattern wheels. Just saying some of these myths crack me up.

    Pinion angle question

    I'll be watching this thread as well. Just installed my new Dana 60 and I've got a vibration when I floor it. Extremely smooth under light throttle, only vibrates a little when smashing the throttle. I'm also thinking about buying a few different degree shims.

    Perfect street/strip converter

    You stated your goals are deep in the 12s and fine going on long 200 + trips. That is EXACTLY what I did at Drag week 2017. Drove right at 1,000 miles between tracks in 5 days. This is a mild 5.9 magnum build and a Ultimate converter that flashes at 4,000 RPM. Drives like a stock converter...

    30 vs 35 spline axles

    If you are building the Dana I would just go with 35 spline axles. I got mine through Moser. Dr. Diff is also a good option

    At what point to go Dana 60 ??????

    Just swapped my 8 3/4 for a 60. 8 3/4 had a pinion seal leak and bearing going out. Rather than throwing more money at it I grabbed a 60 out of a junk yard. Also I'm getting ready to throw boost at this thing so I figured it was time. If I had it to do all over again I would have gone Dana...

    Moser Engineering Rear Ends?

    Some fords had Dana's some 9 inch. 80s and 90s ford and dodge 3/4 ton vans are good just make sure they have the 3 inch axle tubes. Some of the later model stuff has 3.5 inch tubes. Mine came out of a 96 ram 2500. Basically any Dodge 3/4 ton pickup from 73 to late 90s should have a Dana 60 in...

    Moser Engineering Rear Ends?

    No just taking the 8 3/4 so they can measure. I'll buy there ends for the Dana. Saving the 8 3/4 housing for a future project. Thought about buying axles from Dr Diff but i figured if I was already at moser I'd just have them Build them so I don't have to worry about screwing up a measurement

    Moser Engineering Rear Ends?

    I will post since I'm literally in the middle of swapping my 8 3/4 for a Dana right now. Looking like I will end up with around $1400 in the Dana. Wish I would have took the advice to do it first. Started with a craigslist truck Dana for $150. Got it torn down cleaned up and painted. Just...

    Lost Reverse in 904. Please help!

    Yeah that's what I figured. I had planned on having to rebuild this thing after the motor swap I was just hoping it would survive a bit longer. Thanks for the help everyone.

    Lost Reverse in 904. Please help!

    Okay just an update, I still haven't had time to pull the pan but I had to drive the Dart this weekend because my daily driver broke down. I have now lost 3rd gear as well so I would say my transmission is toast. Time to start saving pennies to beef this thing up I guess. Oh well.

    Lost Reverse in 904. Please help!

    Fishy, I wish I knew how many miles were on it. This trans was in the car when I bought it and the seller didn't know much about it. I'll post back here when I get a chance to pull the pan. Thanks FABO.

    Lost Reverse in 904. Please help!

    Thanks for the replies everyone. It will be a little while before I can pull the pan since I don't have a shop. I use my buddies shop about 45 miles away. One thing I forgot to mention is that it will not roll backward in reverse or neutral with the engine running. Shut engine off it rolls back...

    Lost Reverse in 904. Please help!

    Hello, I have a 71 Dodge Dart with a 360/904. I know nothing about whats been done to the transmission as it was in the car when I bought it. A few months ago I swapped out the old tired 318 for a 360 magnum. A lot more horsepower and torque so I knew eventually I would have to beef up the...

    4 speed or 4 speed OD?

    FABO member Badlilred79 has a 4 speed OD in his yellow 70 duster with a blown 340 in it. It has stood up to a lot of abuse for years. I can't say if it has been beefed up internally but I know I have taken a wild ride in that car and the transmission has held up. I also know he doesn't...

    When is Sure-Grip actually necessary?

    1974 Powerwagon 4spd transmission... how do I remove the shifter and relocate it?

    I know the answer to the first question because I own a 73 Powerwagon. Your transmission should be an NP435 and have a shifter retainer like the one pictured below. To remove the shifter push down on the spring loaded retainer and turn counter clockwise. This will unlock the retainer and allow...

    Speedo gear 37 tooth white

    I just wanted to see if anyone out there has one of these to sell or if anyone could tell me where I could find one. Brewer's performance has one for $69 but that seems steep.

    Whats everyone running for gears?

    Running 3.91 sure grip with 28" tall tire and love it! Don't do a ton of highway driving but when I do it's about 2900-3000 at 60 mph.

    Axle won't go in far enough

    Ok guys thanks so much for your help. From the sounds of it I probably had it last night I was just worrying too much (being my first time). I have to go home for the holidays tonight but I will try it next week when I get back in town and let you know. I don't own a deadblow but I'll put a...

    Axle won't go in far enough

    Wishing now I would have ponied up the money for aftermarket axles and Green bearings. I could have gone to big bolt pattern while I was at it.
