Hi Guys, got some Trouble with my new installed 8" custom made converter. I proudly put it in few days ago, made a test drive today (around 15 miles). When i was back home i noticed a strange noise in P and N, in D it was much less noticable. Put the car on the hoist, clearly coming from...

Hi Guys, i found a early 80´s A999 Transmission from a Van for sale, # 4058398. Would like to get it to rebuild it. My concern is if it´s a Lock-up unit, could the Input shaft and if necessary the pump gears be changed to non LU-Parts? Still waiting for pics of the Input shaft to identify it...

Hi guys, need your help. The neutral safety switch threads in the case of my 904 are pretty damaged. Is there a way to save the case besides welding, like a thread repair? I'd like to save it.....thanks in advance! Michael

Hi Guys, i put a Ford 8.8 in my Valiant, after some racing the traction lok did not work as it shoud. I put in a set of carbon discs, everything´s ok for maybe 2 years and not too much racing or street driving - less than 2000 miles. I was at a very good track recently, after two good passes...

Hi Guys, next winter i´m gonna swap the 727 in my car with a built 904 (do the trans by myself). I´d like to have the LBA-feature again in the new trans, but since i bought the 904 as a core i do not know if it has LBA or not. The 904 is from 1977. I disassembled the trans now, is the LBA...

Hi Guys, today i started to overhaul my brothers 904 trans. It´s a 904 or 998, from 1974 as far as i know, it has got 4 pinion aluminium planetaries. I started putting together the planetary gear train to check endplay, unfortunately there are not the right thrust washers in the new kit. The...

Hi Guys, i do have two 904´s here to rebuild, one for me, the other one for my brother. I read in another thread that the 998/999 transmissions do have two reinforcing ribs above the rear servo.....the 904´s don´t have them. Both of the trannies i do have here have these ribs.....so i assume...

Hi guys, i´m doing a 904 together with my brother for his 69 dart. One common problem with 904´s is the spring in the clutch will unwind around 6000 rpm as far as i know, solution is the Multi spring retainer some vendors sell. I found a single spring at ATI, wound in the other direction...

Hi Guys, just put my trans back in the car after complete overhaulin. Put in a kit with alto red clutches, red lined bands, a 4.2 Kickdown lever, billet rear servo piston and retainer. I put the TF2 Kit in, too. Converter is a Turbo Action 3500 stall unit (new). It seems to work fine, nice...

Hi Guys, i just put a tf2 kit in my 727 Valve body, were unsure about the shift command feature. What is this good for in a street / strip car? I did not put this feature in, cause i don´t get the idea behind. If i use manual low or 2nd, isnt it the same when upshifting without this feature...

Hi Guys, tried to assemble my 727 trans this evening. Everything went together smooth, but now i have three sealing rings left over...and i´m pretty worried about. I got a sealing ring kit via bulkparts, the left over sealing rings are like these on the input shaft or at the rear of the...

Hi Guys, was at the drags this last weekend, only one bad run...something went south in the drivetrain. after burnout it felt a little rough....did not worry about it too much. When i returnd i noticed that it´s like if there´s no torque converter, engine is directly connected with the...

Hi Guys, can this converter be identified by the picture? I mean the diameter, by comparing it to the starter ring gear....i do not have much knowledge about race converters, a guy here offers this one without having much info himself.....according to him it stalled at 3000 rpm in a big...

Hi Guys, i´m thinking about switching the TF727 in my Valiant to a TF904. The 727 does need a rebuild in the near future, as far as i read the 904 is lighter and does have less internal loss - means more power to the wheels and better ET´s....that´s what i´m after. I run a 408ci SB with...

Hi Guys, does anybody have a pic from underside so that i can see which direction the trans bracket is mounted to the trans? I removed it from my Slant/904 to put it on my 408/727....unfortunately i did not care about the original orientation......Thanks in advance! Michael

Hi Guys, i bought a new slip yoke for my TF 727 trans. I´m not able to push this yoke into the trans, only light tapping with a hammer forces it in....to remove it also a hammer must be used. I did not push it in the whole way to avoid internal damage....what can cause this? I expect no...

Hi all, i want to put new spring Pads on my new axle for the Valiant. Can anybody give advice what´s the best angle (reference is the pinion i think) to weld the spring Plates on the tubes? I can check it with the existing 7,25", but maybe there´s a better position than the stock one...

Hi Guys, the center section of a rear axle, is it made from cast iron or cast steel? I will do some welding and want to know from what it is made. Thanks for info! Michael

Hi Guys, to keep costs down i want to use a 318 torque converter with my new 408 if it´s finished. In the long run i want to change to another, better suited converter, but i will start with a original one from a 1972 Coronet Wagon. Which Stall Speed will this one make with the higher...

Hi Guys, are the 9,25 rears used in ram vans are always 8 bolt? I´m searching for a good cheap and strong rear for my valiant. Is there a company where i can get custom shafts after shortening the housing to make it fit the car? anybody did this conversion? thanks guys Michael
