Billet servos, frictions, and bands

I accidentally posted this in the for sale area. too much jumping around this site on my part.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I searched that and got nothing on billet servos so I'm asking.


I was reading the 4 plant thread and saw www.wittrans.com that Fishy68 posted. That is an excellent website. You can click the assembly and print it out for reference when assembling the trans. Thanks for that one. That would make a great wall hanger.


I was reading Carl Munroe's book and it looks like the rear servo, spring and cover should be replaced with the billet piece, heavy spring, and the thicker cover. Anyone care to comment on the low and/or intermediate servos and accumilator? Heavey duty band struts? And the Power wedge band anchor like the one on PACTs website.

I'm also between the red eagles and the green frictions. I read on a Chebie site that the green frictions absorb fluid faster than the red which equals faster cooling. ANy comments from the pros? I was also deciding between bands when I read the kevlar bands are fairly hard on drums, so I'm deciding between carbon fiber, red, or green, flex or solid bands. I can't afford the steel drum now, but I will upgrade when I change motors. I've never known anyone to replace the rear factory band, so I may leave it alone. Comments? Should I go for the 15 springs in the direct drum? I want to put this trans together for the street and an occasional pass down the track. I do love beating on a car, so I won't be pussyfooting this thing. Hey it's a Mopar and they are ment to be beaten on.
I have a manuel VB and a 3500 stall converter I will use. For now it will behind a 383 stock bottom end with a .525 lift cam and 915 heads. I have a 72 400 block (yes, the 230) that will be getting a 440 crank, eagle rods, forged pistons, and a 585 hydraulic roller cam. I bought a set of ProComp heads that I am replacing everything in..they were cheap. Oh, do I need a cam button to run that cam?



Anyone tried one of these Billet Rear Servo Kits?
