Picked up a great gearbox which needs the splined out put shaft cleaning, can the end case be removed with out a complete strip down?
(I'm promised the box is 100% good, & if the pan is very clean I don't won't to strip it down)
I've been offered a 6.2 engine & box (7004r), very cheap, the box is still on the motor,the owner carn't find any numbers on the box.
Its quite a distance away, so question is did the 7004r box when fitted as standard to a 6.2 come with the puny 27t input shaft?.
What Is the problem with the...
Is the more than one option on Transgo kits for the 4l80e?.
With a Transgo shifter kit, what shifter do you use? my car has a rachet shifter that controls a TH400.
Other than fitting the Transgo kit, what else do you do, what about the electrical socket on the side? thanks
Can any one paste a link to info regarding how the 4l80e box works?, a friend who is an electronics designer has offered take a look & may be able to build me a controller.
Thanks....
The Buick has the running gear from a 70's Skylark, 455, Th400 & the matching axle about 3:1 ratio.
I've the option of a TH700r4 od box from a gas engine, that might be a better bet, with a low stall converter & change/ mod the valve?
Ok first off I'm in the Uk, that means parts cost loads more here, ( like double! ).
I need to control the Gearbox, I'm ok,on electronics, so what about using the GM module? how hard is it to do, any info about doing this,? what about finding one?.cost? ect...
The after market ECU's, are...
Leroy,that's very kind of you to offer, thanks.
I'm off to the far east for three months shortly & shall get my buddies to keep an eye out for one.
If nothing turns up,I'll get back to you on this when I return. cheers Tim
I've asked on a uk hot rod site for a low stall torque converter, some has stated that one from a gas engine would not be up to the job!.
I find this hard to believe, the 6.2 is stock, no towing, what do you think?
I've found a 700r4 box with the following details,
87 Trans - 7YMMY00590868-346A
Pump Number 8654737
Casting Number MD8
Would this work ok with just a change on the stall speed? thanks
The price of Chevy/Ford stuff is a lot more over here in the UK,( & harder to find) so with that in mind, I have a Ford AOD box in my stash of parts.I would this be ok, on a non turbo 6.2?
Pulled a couple of bearing caps off today, the motor is in very good condition. I was going to re-ring & shelll it, but I'm sure its fine, ( the oil filter has a label stating 78,000 miles) looks like thats all its done.
Should I use it as is, if not going turbo?, or is it worth doing + arp...
