I have a 2003 4L60 from a pickup that was behind a 5.3 that I am considering
using behind a new 350 Ram Jet crate motor to be installed in my 70 Nova. I
understand that I will need to buy a computer and wiring harness to make it
work. Is anyone running this transmission and will it stand up
Well not to answer your question,but I have had my stock 350 eng and my
stock 350 trans, rebuilt..the 350 engine and now has over 400 hp and I drag
race with my car club about 6 times during the summer and my stock trans
holds up just fine...So I would bet your trans would be fine.

Buy the computer and use the 4L60E transmission. It is essentially the same internals as the 700 and with the computer control they are MUCH more reliable than the 700. The electronic is not as tempermental as the 700's.

TH350and 400's can hold up under that power but I am guessing you like
the idea of overdrive. An Add-on ECU is required for the swap. They
can be a little pricey but the end product will be a nice drivetrain
combo for you. A friend recently swapped a 4 cyl diesel into a
truck. He used a
Just FYI, the 1969 full rear quarters are back in stock. Left front fenders
are also in on the east coast but not the west. Right front fenders are in
on the west coast but not the east (go figure). Both fenders are supposed to
be available on both coasts by mid-March. I'm sure you can get these
I liked the tool more before I saw the email. Telling you that it is
designed for a max of 30 lb-ft of torque implies that they will break
easily. They further go on to have only a 1 year warranty and they warn you
that signs of abuse will void your warranty. Of course, they also say

My friend's dad broke the wooden handle a hammer that he bought from Sears
in the 1950s (according to him), and they replaced it for free about 50
years later. They own a service station, so I'm sure the hammer saw its
share of abuse.

I got the same reply today. It's a bit pricey for one or two sockets, but I
guess it's worth it if it saves you time and aggravation while under the
hood!

Kinda hard to understand the price of the ECU but I guess it's whatever the
market will bear. Cost of this project is getting outta hand but I love the
way my 98 GMC and 00 AstroVan shift. The computer will not be controling the
engine and transmission like the new vehicles but I understand

I'm wanting to put a trans temp gauge in my '96 Dually with 454 and
4L80e trans.
The 4L80e has an internal temp trans sending unit, and you can take a
resistance reading from the VCM (under the hood).
So, I know the wires, I have a resistance chart, but, can I actually
connect an aftermarket

Mac tools also handles these, i will check on
A 4L60E needs a computer to function properly. A 4L60 or 700R4 does not.
That 92 trans is a good unit to build. Any post-89 unit is.
I used a 90 4L60 behind the healthy 468 in my 68 El Camino. Only problem I
had with it was the lock-up clutch started slipping after five years and
much hard use.

I am looking for heater control levers with air
for my neighbours 1967 chevelle that I am changing the interior in. I was
wondering if you can buy them new or if there are some used ones out
there??
I have started on it and love working on a
car from the south. The bolts undo etc. etc.
Check the new master cylinder. The new replacements have a different depth
hole for the push rod than the origingals. Change pushrod to right length
if has deep hole. Push rod for somewhere in 70's Malibu's usually about
right. Had this problem and all brake places around could not find. I
I know the levers are available as a set
of four but I dont know if the housing is available. I bought a broken
unit on eBay sometime back and put new levers in it using the old, broken ones
as a reassembly guide. Careful buying a used/broken unit as 66 and 67 are
different for A/C see
AFAIK the
only years that a complete repro unit is available for are 1968-72 with A/C. The
lens levers seems to be the same for 66-67 w/o air, but the levers are
different for 1966 1967 w/ A/C. You can type heater control into the
search box on my site (http://www.oldcarnetwork.com) to
Good advice but that doesn't seem like the sort of thing that would suddenly
cause a problem. That seems more like something that would either work or
not work right from the get-go.
