...the tail of the tranny up a 1/4", now it's sitting nice. NO way the dip stick tube is going to fit unless I bend it a lot so I just ordered a 2004R flexible dip stick tube. Bought 8 quarts of synthetic trans fluid and finished bending and fitting the lines to the tranny. Double checked the...

I ran a Lokar setup with my 904 and then again when I got my 2004r. I was just looking for the "easy" option, but to be honest I wasn't overly impressed with either for the price. I'm not fond at all with the plastic piece they use to attach the cable to the carb linkage. So cheap for a $70...

...Those transmissions were never meant to be heavy duty. The gear spread is good and they perform well, but moving into that power level there are better options. Here's a link to a member who did a 200-4R install. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=174333&highlight=2004r

...cooler. PS - If you happen to notice that some of the pieces are a too long or wide, I did this on purpose so that when I install the 2004R I have plenty of metal to get the tranny centered (left to right) and on the correct horizontal plane. Once I get the tranny exactly where it needs to...

http://www.rosslertrans.com/TH210%20Packages.htm I'll have to call Al and ask him for sure.... but I think his 99 Hemi equipped Barracuda had this trans..... or the 400. The one listed above is pretty light. Was just curious if it was like the 727/904 deal where the lighter 904 was...

...hole in tunnel above the tranny, install a small grommet and run the wires under the floor to the tranny switch wires. When I install the 2004R I can simply splice the original tranny switch wires to the wires leading to the console. Once I get the reverse switch I might even hook...

...Now I can connect a couple of wires and make them long enough to make a connection with the wires that go to the tranny switch so that I won't have to remove the console when I put the 2004R into the car. It will also ensure that I can't start the car in gear when I test the tranny. treblig

...I'll drill a small hole in the tunnel to pass the three wires through then I can reinstall the console and drive my car until I install the 2004R. This should resolve all the problems with the NSS and reverse light. PS - I'm seriously thinking about putting a by pass switch on the NSS...

...for $45 plus shipping. Unless some one says something different I'll order it and see if I can make it work. I'm getting close to putting the 2004R into my cuda and I need to get all these problems resolved so that everything goes smooth when I make the swap. My plan was to spice onto the two...

...had a hard time getting anything to stick to it so we had to sand (lightly grind) off the outer layer. All the time I've had this old (1987) 2004r I wondered why the tranny pan didn't have any rust on it considering it wasn't painted, now I know why. You can see the angle that I held the...

...that's just me though....everyone likes to do things there own way and I'm no exception!!! I absolutely love driving my Barracuda with the 2004R especially with the modified governor and the 3.73 gears. No droning sounds on the highway and pretty nice off the line. Today I order my...

...to a bracket. I'll shows pics after the install, it's pretty simple. Next I tackle the trans inspection cover. Since I loped off one the 2004R tranny ears I'll have to drill and tap one new threaded hole into the tranny housing. Since GM uses the starter on the passenger's side I...

After thinking about the 2004R swap I didn't want to use the GM trans cooler lines then downsize to the mopar fittings, The mopar fittings are 1/8" pipe in the transmission and in the radiator. To make things worse the mopar fittings have a much smaller opening than the GM fittings/line. Here...

...tells me that the two outer wires on the tranny switch connect when the trans is in reverse completing the circuit to the back-up lights. I plan to buy the lokar switch and mount that goes with the 2004r so when I hit reverse the lights will work. Has anyone tried this before???? Treblig

...the adapter in the area that the exhaust pipe is located. See PICS. Then I took the adapter and placed it on the tranny and found that the 2004R tranny has a large bulge just below and behind the area where the square boss projects from the engine. So to be safe I plan on trimming a good...

Here's the parts list and some of the pricing. I was shooting for around $650 for the 2004R overhaul. Ended up spending close to $900. But that's not too bad considering they bought the shift kit with all the valve body and servo springs and other items to make all the modifications I wanted...

I went out with a buddy for a celebration dinner tonight and didn't get anything done. I want to drop the torque converter in the transmission tomorrow and see how it came out. We're aiming for 1/8" from fully seated in the transmission to bolted to the flexplate. That will put me right in the...

Finally got the cuda off the car lift. Pre-fitted all my homemade 2004r tranny/cross member brackets and found no problems. Tested the speedo cable extension and rerouted the cable. Put a some undercoating on the underside. I also found one interesting fact...if you install a rod end in the...

Do you mean Lonnie? Good guy. He built the 2004r in my car and I love it.

...to build a 390 stroker with around 375/400 HP. But the more I think about it I'm wondering how the car will launch with the lower 1st gear (2004R) and 4:10s in the rear. The 318 in my Cuda run real good. I already have a new posi in the rear end. If it launches like I want I may not have...

...well but still doesn't have the torque and power I'm looking for (3.08 gears). Maybe I'm asking too much. I'm in the process of installing a 2004R transmission into my Cuda (and switching to 4.10 gears) so that should help on the low end. It's just that now that I done all this reading at...

I'm using the Wilcap kit with my 5.9 magnum / 2004r combo. Very very nice kit. I had to provide a stock flex plate for the balance, but they should have that info on file now. The kit is 100% bolt-on. The only modifcation needed is to grind/file the tip of the starter to clear the bell...

...The main body is a much smaller diameter but the part of the starter that the manifold (77) was hitting was the solenoid. When I put the 2004R into my Cuda I found that the factory (large) starter was hitting the down pipe (because the TCI adapter kicks the starter out towards the driver's...

...be sure and put a wrench on the fitting that has the solder so you don't twist off the solder joint while you're tightening the trans line. I think I may have mentioned that in my 2004R posts. As far as sealer goes, I always use liquid Teflon on threads for trans line and radiator...

Thanks for the info, once again, I saw the vice marks on your's and knew they must be very soft. I figured you, as a machinist, knew just how soft they were and still ended up with some vice marks on them. I figured mine would look the same when I was done. I guess I should fab up some...

...no way a Mopar trans fitting and a GM trans fitting would be the same. On top of that, the Mopar cable is a few (4-5) inches short of where the 2004R fitting will end up. If you look at previous pics you should be able to see that the Mopar speedo trans connection is closer to the front than...

Well it wasn't easy as pie but it wasn't hard either. I rolled the 2004R over on it's back and removed the pan (metric bolts). Cleaned it up a little and located the spot where I want the drain plug. Of course I changed my mind a little later but I'm sure you'll put yours when you want. Just...

...or what but out of the whole kit that's the only part that I would call "cheap". I wound up upgrading to the piece you see everyone using on their throttle cable. One thing I do like about the kit is its simplicity. It's so easy to install and adjust, unlike the TV cable on the 2004r I...

...out more than 1/4". If they are longer than 1/4" they end up hitting the backside of the alignment pins that TCI put into the adapter for the 2004R (pics 5 & 6). I had to hammer the driver's side "in" about 1/8" to get it correct. Also in pic 5 & 6 you can see how the passenger exhaust...
