The Jalopy Journal
I'll be there, in Tent City, with a big pot of chili, on Friday night. Any HAMBers around on Friday come and get a bowl of stew. Cooking, camping...
Did your lunch time excursion reveal anything? If not I'll try to find Brian for you, I haven't seen him since he left S-K so I have to catch up...
If it doesn't work-out with Larry, Brian Higgins formerly of S-K Speed in Lindenhurst would be a good source, Although he's retired from S-K, he...
Blimey! I met English Rich at the Tiki Kings' Terror on the Turnpike, on LI this past September. Diamond Geezer!
It is not a kick-down cable, it's throttle pressure. Thats why the adjustment is so critical, and why the trans can burn-up on a test drive around...
Awesome, thank you.
The 's' hook is connected to the manual valve and would affect hydraulic activation in the trans: but park is mechanically activated. The problem...
With the engine running, the transmission pump sucks fluid from the pan into the torque converter and cooler and some areas of the trans. This...
Steve Bonge (currently president of the NYC HAMC) acquired the Model A coupe from Brian Setzer (they are both from Long Island), probably in the...
Fabian's use of the taillights is so right, it makes the original Buick fenders look like an ill-conceived custom idea.
Butch, you should try calling FB Performance Transmissions in Bayshore NY. I used to work there and broke-down a few Torque Drive units; they...
I always find the 'transmission ID' charts that use pan gaskets could always be more informative. They often don't show the orientation in the...
It's a late TH700R4/4L60 with an auxiliary valve body. And electric speedo.
METRIC is also stamped into the bottom of the 200-4R pan. But as the TH200 came out first and was the only GM trans with this stamping it became...
This is the Robt. Williams album quick85 spoke of, double LP picture discs. I bought this when it was released in about 1988. There was also a...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] It was a great day for one of the best Fallout events I've attended.
The 200R is the same length and output shaft spline, your drive shaft won't have to be altered. You will have to cut the mount pad off the cross...
The closest I could find is City Light (Light describes the weight of the type; light, medium or bold etc) published by Berthold in the 1930s. But...
A parking pawl from a Ford C3/A4LD auto trans. C3 was a light duty three speed unit, A4LD was a four speed OD version of the trans.
Don't worry about the dust-cover, you can run a trans without one. A bit of air-flow around the converter is a good thing. The engine/balancer...
I wouldn't give it a second thought. If it was affecting the movement of the slip yoke I would dress the splines with a needle file. Just make...
I'm sorry you've such problems with your 200r. Get in touch with Chris at www.ckperformance.com They are probably the best 200r builders in the...
More than likely it's the weep hole in the back of the yoke. But also worth checking is where the rear seal rides on the yoke, the yoke should be...
Powerglides do not have governors like a TH350. No plastic gears, the governor is bolted to a flange on the output shaft. Accessible by removing...
A semi educated guess says they are tapered pins, and should be knocked out from underneath. If this is the case, use a straight punch. New pins...
Call Brian at S-K Speed on Long Island , he has more T5s than he knows what to do with and I dont think he will need part numbers to help you....
Most 200-4r are 'multi bell' (BOP/chevy), a small number were BOP only. None were made for Chevy only, so any 200-4r will bolt up to your engine....
It's a non lock-up Turbo 350. Not a 'Glide
Brian (Zombie Hot Rod) is obviously too modest to mention he is a member of Friday nights headliners, Scrapers. They are an excellent Hardcore...
Ahh-ha, mystery solved. Back to watching Elementary
