    Best way to change trans fluid w/o major mess?

    Thats a good question...i think the answer is some, but not all fluid. The trans pump pulls from the pan and charges the convertor with fluid so id think once the pan empties there would only be cavitation in the pump thereby not allowing the TC to be purged. Be cautios not to let the motor...

    Recommended Vac. brake booster

    Thanks all..yes I got the vac block that sits on plenum. I learned that the large tap for the brakes actually can un-screw itself as well!! I like the idea of the "tee". That RJC PCV vlve is also great advice. Ive been out of the loop and didnt know that problem was finally solved. I always...

    Recommended Vac. brake booster

    Regarding the B-body booster: The thread mentioned a possible mismatch of line fittings to MC. Im thinking that the MC must be paired to the B Body booster. Just not sure what to do now.

    Re-using RJC gasket after leak

    Jason advised not to re-use. And wont sell just one gasket. Another question regarding the valley/intake gasket...do you guys spread sealant over all intake ports on both sides? It seems that perhaps only the water ports should use it, and the mating to the neoprene strips. Im thinking im...
