    Ends up that is opening weekend for archery. I won’t be able to make it. Any of you local guys going to get out in the next two weekends? At the very least I will probably make it to the Kemah (Home Depot) get togethers on Saturday night.

    Century transmission by mike kurtz

    Exactly, was supposed to be a freshen up. I tripped when he told me it was that much. Then he wanted another $500 to fix it. I figured that it’s all good if it holds the power. It wasn’t till we went on the test drive that I fully realized that he had know idea how to “build”.

    Century transmission by mike kurtz

    Yes, those are all good names. I would even throw Steve V in the mix. Like you said , I eventually end up building everything myself. It just makes everything easier. The only reason that I went to Mike was because of his reputation on the Buick forums. It wasn’t till I spent time walking the...

    Please don’t believe the hype from these old posts. I highly recommend to stay away from Mike Kurtz. If you do choose to use him do yourself a favor and ask him some semi technical questions on turbo Buick’s. He knows little to nothing on these cars. He didn’t even build the old beater that has...

    Century transmission by mike kurtz

    I recently went to Mike Kurtz at Century Transmission to freshen up an older build that he did. After trailering the car three times to him and spending $3300 on a freshen up, I finally had to just get my car away from him. Shifted at less than 100psi (in 3rd before I exit intersection) . The...

    odometer repair

    Got it done. Austin Radio & Speedometer Service in Houston. Phone # 713-659-7920. I took the gear assembly to them and they fixed it while I waited. They even offered to sell me the gear so that I could fix it myself. Good people and very reasonable price.

    odometer repair

    Yep, I agree about putting a 20 year old part in. It would seem like someone would have come across a place to get a new gear. I destroyed mine taking it apart. I did take lots of pictures and dimensions. The guys that do the repairs get them somewhere. Maybe a place that works on r.c. cars...

    odometer repair

    Thanks, I called them. 130.00 . Pretty pricey for a plastic gear install. If someone doesn't chime in on a way to get the gear and install it myself, I will have to go that route. Thanks.

    odometer repair

    Pulled the cluster and found that I had the rotten yellow gear that runs off the worm gear. It is a pressed pin that holds the gear on. Can I grind the pin and get a replacement gear and reinstall or do I need to find another odometer assembly. If so which cars are suitable doners?

    t top and parts needed for tta

    Turbonj, you were right. Pulled the switch and squeezed it and it worked. While I was in there I pulled the cluster to fix the odometer. I will start a new thread on that.
