Inspection of a 904 torqueflite

When you are new to something, only do something rarely, are limited on having a century of experience where you can do it with your eyes closed, have the skilled maestro touch, OR when one is more based in reality, when you in fact have the proper tools, you torque the band adjusters to 72 in/lbs then back them off the recommended amount of turns. Simple as that. Then you rest easy eliminating all future concern or doubt as to whether the bands are right.

I tightened them to 72inch and backed off 2 1/2 for the kick down and 4 turns back for the reverse. They seem better than the first time.

I’ll run The temp on the rear port.

I’m looking to control the TDC lock up on the governor port with an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. I haven’t found the regulator as I don’t know the pressure range for one yet

I really like that van
