904 lockup info

There is no issues between the various models.
Just what there built with inside.

Later years have bigger lines. Why they did this I’m not sure but it might have to do with the 904 variants (A-500) being installed in trucks. Those have the extra gear and have the potential of more weight when the truck is loaded. My 4X4 ‘03 quad cab Dakota wasn’t exactly light.

Makes sense. Heavier, taller gears = more heat. I'm betting those transmissions have larger passages to the cooler line ports also!
I am in the process of mourning for a friend who passed just about 48 hrs ago. Normally, I would not mess with posting something like that, but I have known him long enough that he was around when my Dad bought the Formula S - the one I am currently working on. We talked about it whenever we were together and he was looking forward to the completion of the car. We were going to take it cruising together, just like we did in the 60's & 70's. Unfortunately, that will not happen. His memory will be with me whenever I am in that car! Rest in Peace - my brother in cars, motorcycles, music and good times! (Oh, do I have some stories!) bye, Bruce.
