Thanks Bobby Joe, I have set myself up this way and now that I know that I
must split the Tork converter It should be on the floor in an hour tonight.
Unfortunatlly my manuals are still in the mail and I must clear out my
buddys garage soon, so I am working a bit in the dark.
Is the oil in the tork converter the same as the transmission oil? Is it fed
by the transmission?
And last question I am reading diffrent things from this board about Oil,
should I refill with ATF or 10 weight Oil?
Thanks for your help and patience, I am new at this.
Sean Raymond
