Nice work, Mike. Look at those fresh lobes!!!

 

[zkx14]

I had one like that. The center doesn't fill in. I was going to hide a bird bath in mine.

Was thinking I'd take some off the outside and put it in the middle so it would restart.

Wiring. Sucks.

Just got our property tax assessment. Ours went up 29%. a raise of $81,000.. Yikes.

 

[fatoldguy]

Appreciate the conversation, as always.



And if anyone knows of a distributor wrench for an LA motor that DOESN'T SUCK, please let me know

Made my own out of a wrench. Hope it helps.

Ouch

Thought you knew someone in city government??

Can give you the measurment if you need .

Yes... that'd be cool

She is the CFO of the county but the assessor's office does the values. We will probably protest it and get it lowered.

Pretty well 1 1/2 inch all around. And welded a socket at the end for an extension.

Well, back to the drawing board...rewind 2 years and I'm pulling the transmission out. This time, low gears, no upshift. Thought it might just be high band and kickdown and throttle adjustments but there is a bit of a growl/grind in there as well which could be front pump or other malfunction. Last time I went FAFO I broke my 225, so out she's gotta come. It'll be a couple of weeks before I get to it though. First, because I'm emotionally crushed and pissed....second is that I have a few other things around the house to tend to before I dive into that.

Thinking I should just rebuild that other core that I have and do a swap.

Been looking at the A904 rebuild kits online. So hard to tell what will or won't work for the 64 typewriter version.

Looking at this one from Oregon Performance Transmission A904 Rebuild Kit A998 A999 Automatic Transmission Master Overhaul Banner Box Set Torqueflite 6

Anyone have an option that worked for them? I'm not smart enough to do a bit by bit order from A&A. The kit is way simpler for me as opposed to trying to match up disparate parts.

@lkopaska @RustyRatRod

Again?!?!

That said, before you pull it, let’s get you an extra set of hands and check the adjustment of each cable.

Property taxes are unconstitutional. There I said it, now I’ll take my spankings

Oh and make sure any kit you buy… is specifically for the pushbutton. To include a valve body and converter….

Perfect

He has probably done a hundred of those pushbutton transcriptions.

 

[One Bullet Barney]

Thats no punishment I was told he likes spankings.

They’re not hard, biggest problem is getting the right kit

Availability drops off STEEP earlier than 1966...

Probably because, like Rob said, most people tossed the Push-button over the years.

Sunshine for the win!
