Valvebody install?

[static-x]

I was wondering how involved installing a new valvebody is? Is it just a matter of removing the pan and the 8mm hex bolts on the VB. I've done a search but couldnt really find any install info. Anyone know what those bolts gotta be torqued down to?

it's not that bad a job, only thing you have to watch for is making sure the lever for the shift mechanism properly engauges that spot on the valve body........

i assume there's no replaceing the servo spring, just a valve body swap ( in other words your not doing a shift kit)

not sure on the torque, i'd think intrsuctions would tell you......are you buying an aftermarket vb or what??

Do the torquing in three steps and use an inch pound torque wrench.
