I think this fell out of the front pump on my '66 C4 while I was rebuilding the trans. What is it and where does it go?? I don't see it in any schematics.

Thanks!

Someone told me it was used to prevent TC ballooning in high temp/high rpm conditions and only in '65 and '66 C4s. Can any one confirm? I still don't know where it goes exactly, but this person said you can run without it.

Maybe one of your "buddies" tossed into the work area to "watch the show"? Kinda like dropping a Baby Ruth into a swimming pool.
