Does anyone know the ratio of the worm gear on a TF727/A833 output shaft? I want to know how to calculate the rpm of the speedometer cable - how do you do that exactly? Let's assume you have a 32 tooth speedometer pinion gear in your transmission - how many revolutions of the output shafts are...

I need the precise distance between the block (440) and the face of a 3 ring ATI Super Damper. Part numbers will be either 917122E (steel) or 917474E (aluminum). Block reference should be timing cover/water pump housing attachment face. Here is a pic (not mine) - is the forward looking oil pump...

Posted this on FBBO before but didn't get any answers besides get a kit from Vintage Air but this is not what I want for two reasons: a) cost - I live in Europe an shipping, taxes, customs add 8 to 900 dollars on top so I'll try to source parts locally. b) I want to be able to get replacement...

Any members from ABQ or close by who go to the U Pull & Pay yard? need a part that's in the yard...

How do the hydraulic throw out bearings differ between Mopar, Chevy, Ford? Are they application specific or modular meaning that only the piston (diameter) is different and swapping the piston allows you to turn a Chevy TOB into a Mopar TOB?

Here are two assembly tricks for a 4-speed transmission I came up with (haven't seen these before): The most cumbersome job (at least for me) when assembling an A833 is to mate the main shaft assembly with the main case. The loaded main shaft (I know I know ;) ) is quite heavy and since you...

What's the deal with the woodruff key for the cluster pin? The counter shaft pin is supposed to be secured with a woodruff key but the key I took out of the tranny is much wider than the slot in the new pin? Interestingly the slot in the old pin is the same width.. Do I have the wrong key or...

I'm assembling the mainshaft and realized that I can spin first and second gear but not third gear. Turns out that the synchronizer hub (3-4 synchro) rubs against the front of the third gear cone once I put the snap ring in place and prevents the gear from turning freely. How much clearance...

Are these parts still useable? Countershaft shows some flaking of an otherwise perfect shaft. I know these are available new but cost $60 in Europe. Is welding and grinding down an option (are the shafts hardened? I assume yes...). Mainshaft: this is the bearing seat area (rear bearing)...

I have a torque lock style synchronizer assembly which I think was only available on later OD transmissions. They use a special hub but the keys are the same as for the other 1970 and later synchros (3/8" wide) - at least that's what I thought. The cutout in the slider sleeve is very shallow and...

I have some pretty worn gears and synchro sliders and I tried grinding the dog teeth so that they are somewhat pointy again (vs. rounded as before). Turned out ok but could this be a problem in the sense of that the dog teeth are too far back now? Didn't grind of a lot but removed some material...

I'm in the process to convert my car from auto to 4-speed and one of the necessary tasks is to set up the clutch linkage. I think the following lines might help others who are in the same position. 1.) There are several different ways how you can actuate a clutch: a) mechanical linkage b)...

Do I need to/should I remove the over center spring when running a hydraulic throwout bearing paired to a Borg&Beck-Long style clutch (McLeod)? Thanks

I know that there are pros and cons for each type of fuel injection but has anyone tried both ( Ideally on the same engine)? What was your experience after the change? Thanks!

Hi, I'm in need of a cam for my 505 stroker (TF 240 heads) and have narrowed it down to a solid flat tappet cam in the 245-250 @ .050 range (street car, 3.33 rear gears, 4-speed). Talked to Dwayne Porter and he suggested a straight pattern Comp Cams XTQ lobe (278 adv., 248 @.050, 160 @.200, .566...

Hi, I'm looking for an Indy dual plane intake manifold for standard ports (not opened up to MW size). Thanks

I'm looking for a set of BB 1.6 PRW roller rocker arms (steel version) in good used or new condition. Part number is 3244012 Thanks

I have a few questions about these parts: is there anything special about the gear on the right as the cutting of the dog teeth looks different compared to gear on the left. Which slider should I take for my build / for which synchro style are they? First one has an indent in the middle...

I'm looking for a gear set for my 4-speed with a 3.09 first gear and 1:1 final drive. These gears came on 74-75 318 cars and on 6 cylinder cars I think. Thanks!

I'm looking for an input shaft (23 spline), 3rd gear, and a 3-4 synchronizer in good used condition. maybe even a whole gear set? Thanks!

First off, let me introduce myself: I'm a 29 yo guy living in beautiful Austria. Heard many great stories about FABO so I decided to join the board. Maybe you guys could already help me out: I recently got a Holley Street Dominator intake and I decided to rebuild one of my thermoquads I have on...
