    Opinions on painting transmission

    I was hoping to just clean my trans case (904) and maybe clearcoat, but even after cleaners, wire brushing and steel wooling, it just was not looking very nice. So, I used Rustoleum aluminum primer and aluminum color coat, followed by clear satin engine enamel. The clear actually dulled it to...

    speedo cable doesn't fit

    That definitely sounds like it's in the speedometer. I'd recommend starting a new thread asking if it can be zeroed. Im sure someone on here will know. Once that is working you can verify if the speed is correct. If needed, gearing and tire sizes can be adjusted for by changing the little...

    engine color also on trans ?

    Don't know if they ever did, but I doubt they would waste the time and paint on aluminum case. What about the pan color?

    Need help with Speedometer cable

    The 68 inch I used is #6151659. They also list a 63", but says 2piece 'lower' - and a 40" 'upper' ???. They show that 80" for 1970 and the other ones for 1971 up. I often find that parts listings are either not complete for different years ( or completely wrong) for '75 I frequently have to...
