    1985 TB Engine and Trans for sale

    Hi there, I have a 85 Hot Air TB Engine that is converted to Intercooled and the 85 BQ transmission for sale. They are still bolted together. I bought this engine and trans 6 months ago for a S-10 project, but money shortages have caused me to sell this. I don't know much about the...

    TCC Woes, Is it the Converter itself?

    I dont now have any electronic controls controling the TCC. Its a made up system using a manual on off switch, brake switch, and 4th gear pressure switch. Even if I wire straight 12 volts to the Solenoid and ground it at the valve body, it still wont work. I checked it with the pan off and...

    TCC Woes, Is it the Converter itself?

    Alright, Im at a loss. I repaired my tranny 2 or 3 months ago for band failure. Ever since then, I cannot get the coverter to lock up. I pulled the tranny again last week and tore it all back apart and rechecked all the sealing rings on the input shaft, took apart, checked, and reassembled...

    Scoring on Overrun clutch housing and piston?

    The question is, is there a way to stop it? The only way that I know of is some sort of locator , like the Low/reverse piston in a TH350.

    Scoring on Overrun clutch housing and piston?

    you know, maybe it has to do with inertia. If you have a drum spinning at high RPM (like in first gear) and you slam on the band fast, Maybe the piston will spin in the housing because of its rotating mass. Maybe the same thing is happening to the overrun drum. When 4th comes on, doesnt...

    Weird 2-3 shift..

    Did you try pull the cable out a couple clicks at a time? Sounds like the cable is too far rearward. from where it is at right now, push on the button on top of the cable and pull the inner sleeve forward about 2-3 clicks an test drive it.

    TCI shift kit+non brf VB+GN gov=ok?

    A GN governor assembly will NOT WORK with either of those valve bodies. I have tried to put one in my KCF code trany and would not shift. The GN governor only works with the BRF VB or a VB that has been modded to GN specs. Use the stock one if your going to use a Non BRF VB. If a higher shift...

    shifting too hard!!

    sounds like someone has drilled the separator plate feed holes to big or blocked off/shimmed the accumulators (or better yet, possibly both ideas). They only way to find out why is to take out the tranny and pull the valve body and remove the 3-4 accumulator housing. something is screwy...

    Rebuild Kits - Art Carr

    1) Art Carr of texsas is still around, but I would not buy a rebuild kit from them. They use the extra clutchpack kit for the direct and that is not the way to go. I have around 10,000 miles of driving and the directs were burnt to black. Get in touch with either CK performance or PTS. They...

    Shift Kit + Billet servo = Busted Anchor!

    Well, I though I wouldnt need the Alto band, but I guess I was wrong. I had second gear, but it was very weak shifting and slipping. http://www.fordvschevy.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=12798&stc=1

    Sluggish 1-2 shift

    Howdy folks, I have an 2004 R with an Art Carr billet servo and reybestos band. I was driving around town 2 weeks ago. Tranny was fine and shifted great. About 2 hours of driving, my 1-2 shift suddenly went sluggish. Its worse than a stock shift. It doesnt slip once it is in gear, just...

    Art Carr vs Vigilante

    I run the billet 9.5 L/U Art Carr converter. I had wonderful service so far with the unit. I have had it for 2 years now. They got the stall right on the first try. It better be for $750.:D -78oldscutlass

    Very General Question

    The spring may have been slung out of the governor. Without it, it will make the shift points really high and seem like there is no 2nd gear. Doing a burnout and letting of the gas suddenly will make it launch out. Id rather have the gurus answer your question.

    700 filter in 200r

    The 700 R4 filter will only work with a modified Art Carr pan or a pan that is designed for it. The 700 filter will not work with the stock pan. If you have an art carr pan w/ the modified stands, then you use the shallow 700 filter. Just order one for a 90 camaro 305 V8 and you'll get the...

    Questions about Deep Pan and 700r Filter mod ???

    Tim, Check this thread out that I started long ago. I posted on how much to remove from the stands. Make sure that you move the metal spring that pushes the filter down up one valve body bolt. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=54550

    art carr fwd drum

    I have an Art Carr drum. While it has held up behind my 400 HP small block, I have no faith in it to hold my nitrous feed big block. The Art Carr drum is basically a stock drum with some special treating that isnt worth the money. PTS and CK Performance are the ONLY companies I would buy a...

    Will 700 filter work with stock pan?

    A 700-4R filter wil NOT work with the stock pan. The pan is too shallow and wont even bolt up with the 700 filter hanging too far down. If you have an Art Carr aluminum pan or a different pan that utilizes the 700 filter, it will work.
