WELCOME Colts383dart, Read your thread and thought I'd let you know that I'm in the process of building a 2004R for my '69 Cuda. I plan to build a 318/390 stroker after I install the 2004R in my Cuda. There is a thread showing all the problems I have run into and solved before I install the...

Thanks Duster, I forgot to mention that I'm running a 2004R and the larger 5/16 lines for more flow. I found that the Mopar trans lines are pretty small and the fitting are very restrictive. I swapped out the fittings on the radiator so they wouldn't restrict flow also. I have a moderate...

...is that this company KMJ uses welding (turbine and impeller fins) instead of furnace brazing and says that their TCs are good to 500 HP. I thought that was pretty good for $191.00 and free shipping!! That's for a stock stall 2004R non lock up converter. I'm putting a 2004R into my cuda. Treblig

...340/360 exhaust manifolds, 2 1/2" dual pipes, mildly ported 596 heads, custom cam with 2.02/1.6 valves, 3 angle valve job, gasket matched. The 2004R should give me a really good bottom end (probably 4:10/4:55 first gear ratio) with the lower 2004R first gear and the overdrive will keep the...

Ok, here's the deal....most 2004R transmissions come with the run of the mill governor which shifts out of 1st, 2nd and 3rd at a much lower RPM than us street guys like. The cars with the good governors are the Monte Carlo SS, GN and 442s. If you happen to get a regular 2004R you can modify the...

...sale on craigslist. He wanted $150 for the whole pallet. After close inspection of the tranny housing I was able to determine that he had one 2004R which I had been seeking for a back up (I recently installed a 2004R in my "69 Barracuda) and the second trans looked like a mopar. So I went...

Well finally some progress. Here are some pics of the SysKoKit (Shift kit,SK200-4R-B) used on my 2004R and the Transgo non lock up kit and the Gil Younger Reverse fix. The guys at TransPartsWarehouse checked off everything they did (on this work sheet) as they overhauled the 2004R. Then they put...

I'm make'n a list and check'n it twice....LOL ..for my 2004R. No worries about the converter pilot. The TCI crank adapter has a snug slip fit ID that basically adapts the 2004R converter to the Mopar crank. But I do appreciate that you're thinking ahead to avoid problems that might bite me...

...to get there. It's amazing that I could possibly go that fast with 3:90 gears. And just for reference I spent a little over $1800 to put the 2004R into my '69 Barracuda but I did all the work myself EXCEPT for the tranny overhaul ($900). I don't know of any overdrive system out there that...

Did you get your 2004R governor and speedo gears correct before you install the transmission?? Or did I already ask you about that....don't remember??/ treblig

Here is one of the pics I promised. It shows the location (on the 2004R) at the center of the factory cross member. The silver line represent where the stock Mopar lower cross member (trans mount) would be. More pics and info later, gotta go!!! Treblig

I forgot to make sure and mention that the 2004R is METRIC transmission. So all bolts are metric including the bolts that hold the inspection cover. But then again, the housing is aluminum and easy to tap out to a larger SAE size bolt for the inspection pan Treblig

...I'm building a mild torque monster 318/390 stroker. The motor will never see anything higher than 5800 RPM, besides I already have a modified 2004R overdrive installed, 1800 stall converter and 3.73 gears in the car so I don't need high RPMs anyway. Just lots of torque from 1K to 5800 RPM...

...my bracket solves that problem. Also remember that this bracket is being designed to hold the stock Mopar accelerator cable along with a GM 2004R TV cable hook up. It's not quite finished but it's getting close. I'll have to use a socket head bolt or maybe one of those fancy 3/8" headed...

Art Carr has a 2004r that will take that kind of horsepower for a couple of grand. There is an excellent thread on this board on the installation of a th2004r into a Cuda. It is under will a stock floor shift fit a 2004r (or something like that) Lots of photos for you to look at, and see what...

...to rotate on center. The rubber boot doesn't offer any support. In the last pic I posted there is an extra bracket because I installed a 2004R overdrive so I had to remove the lower bracket/support (last pic) for the torque shaft only leaving the upper one (first two pics). So I installed...

A month? Heck if it can be ready for Christmas I'd be buying one. That would be awesome. Eventually I'd love to put one in my Challenger as well, but I don't see that happening really soon. I'm sure there's someone else out there on a shorter timeline than me for that one.

These pics show how far back it is from the center of the factory mount to center of the 2004R mount. Very close to 4 3/8" - 4 7/16". When I measured the distance from the front of the adapter to the tranny seal I got 27 9/16" but that can't be correct so I'll have to measure it again. My 2004R...

A few folks have asked "what's going to happen if there's not enough clearance for the shifter torque shaft once the 2004R is installed?" Well all my measurements say that there's enough clearance but if there is not enough clearance here's the back up plan. See PICS, Put a small hole in the...

The 2004r doesn't have the steep first gear like the 700r4, it's more like a low gear ratio 904 (2.74, 1.57, 1.00, .67). That's one of thr main reasons I also went with a 2004r.

I agree with 1970Duster...2004R, best of both worlds if you're going to do any highway driving and you want a great launch!!:burnout: PS- great gas mileage too!! Treblig

I have my doubts about a stock 2004R converter being good for 500HP. GM couldn't do it, and I'll bet that if you go to Art Carr, ATI, PTC, Continental, Marv Ripes, and the like, you won't get a STOCK converter good for 500HP. Youv'e done a great job on the conversion, don't cheap out on the...

...for the carb to function optimally. If I remember correctly the bottom of the tranny pan should be horizontal as well. But in the case of my 2004R installation I wasn't able to get the tranny quite as high as the 904. It was very close to the factory height (angle) but I would have had to...

Speedometer extension from ebay: Speedometer Cable Extension 20" Buick Olds Pontiac Cadillac | eBay What car are you putting the 2004R into?? Treblig

Thanks man, and love the cuda... That's what I want for my next project. I know the engine is a 68 but I'll just have to measure how close or far the pistions sit in there. I'll pass on the offer, I don't have a vehicle to haul a tranny or motor that far...local only use of my company van...

I posted this yesterday but it got wiped out by the site "crash". I have been driving my 69 Barracuda with the 2004R trans for about 3 months. I thought that I was able to manually put the trans into 1st gear but I've been noticing that when I put the shifter into the 1st gear position the car...

...actually I did. This is the back up in case the spring loaded one fails. I had the neutral safety on the tranny and I'm swapping the 904 for a 2004r. So I mounted a neutral safety switch on the console along with the reverse light switch. The toggle switch is there in case the spring loaded...

...that was a super good price for complete overhaul, installing a shift kit and testing on their Dyno. I had some of the HD parts for the 2004R already and a list of items I wanted checked/replaced. Mike told me they would check it out and only use the items off my list that would help me get...

...bolt unusable...and don't forget the lock tight!!. Had to run to the screw and bolt store to get what I needed. Modified and installed the 2004R inspection pan. I had fabricated one months ago (see old posts) but since I had to cut off another portion of the 2004R housing,to clear my...

...I'll be OK on the hardened seat issue. I'm building a 318 stroker (390 CI), no high RPM/revving. It will be a torque monster, since I have a 2004R overdrive already installed I won't need high RPMs to putt around the streets or on the highway. I do plan to port the heads so that the 390 can...
