    ahh duhh, what type of oil?

    351: Yeah thats right, there is a bent style one that fits a FL-1A. I forgot all about that. Merkurs and SVOs had them correct? My motor is from an '87 TC so I have the boxed flat one.

    ahh duhh, what type of oil?

    FL-1A's are too big for me with the oil cooler. I hear oil coolers dont help that much anyway, is this true?

    How much for a shell?

    I'm getting rid of my '93LX. The trans is shot and the motor has about 180K on it. The car has almost NO rust, and its obviouslly not twisted beacuse its a 105HP four banger. I'm going to sell it as a shell beacuse thats pretty much all its worth, Plus I can use the DIS parts off of it and put...

    Rebuild A4LD Install

    I gave up and re-installed the old A4LD. Its fine 1st - 2nd but slips pretty bad from times into 3rd, and does not shift into OD anymore. On installation I did not change filter or modulator. I also reused as much 'old oil' as I could. I tryed to avoid doing a complete fluid change beacuse...

    Rebuild A4LD Install

    This is rediculous, this stuipd shifter leaver is the only thing holding me back from installing this trans, I'd put the trans in but I wouldent be able to reach or mess around with the linkage once its in. I'm just so fed up right now I wanna put the tran's in the trunk and push this car down a...

    Rebuild A4LD Install

    How hard is it to get that shifter mech. out of the trans? It looks impossible beacuse theres no room. there seems to be another bolt on the opposite side of the shaft inside of the trans but theres like no room to grab that. Or am I looking at this all wrong? The connectors looked the same...

    Rebuild A4LD Install

    I'm going to reuse the N/A TC and FP. I got a problem though, The shifter leaver on the TC is differnt than the mustang. the TC's hangs near the pan and the mustang is above along with the kick down leaver...I guess im going to have to rig something up beacuse in order to switch the two it looks...

    Rebuild A4LD Install

    Started doing the swap today, took the driveshaft off, crossmember, and all but one bolt on the transmission/motor. the one where the trans dip stick is bolted to. The car is a '93 Mustang 2.3 and the Trans came out of an '87 Thunderbird turbocoupe, but It was rebuilt by the prevous owner so...
