My 72 had a similar problem after its trans was rebuilt. I believe they put in the wrong rooster tail for the neutral safety when they changed the valve body (just a guess). It cranks on neutral and park however. I ended up putting micorswitch on the B&M shifter for reverse, and now it has lights.

Any details on this valve body and/or the specific part number? No issues with it? Trans brake? Thanks in advance.

Yeah this car has a lot of random mismatched parts and short cuts from the previous owner. Luckily they do have the correct Edelbrock throttle shaft lever, part 1481. I think I'm just going to get a bouchillon cable, and call it a day given the hobbled together parts.

Thank you for all the advice. I got the manual and will be going through it....although, going back to my FSM, I believe the car came with the wrong kickdown linkage rod. Mine appears to be for a big block. That and the spring would explain a lot I believe. Two pictures below. The first is the...

Ok got it, thanks for the info everyone. I hope this fixes my trans issues. Been a PITA. I have a Edelbrock carb and stock kickdown linkage..only kickdown linkage for a 727 340 I found was this on year one, also got a new throttle spring.

Rgr that makes sense. Looks like I'll get a spring and readjust the kickdown again. I appreciate the help.

I've been having issues with my rebuilt 727 for a 340. It shifts from 1-2 at 20mph, and 2-3 at 50+ after I lift my foot off pedal. Also, sometimes it won't downshift to 1st gear at a stop. Tranny shop that rebuilt the 727 says it's likely a dirty governor issue. However, I just noticed the...

This has happened to me a couple time. Once a fuse, parking lights and dash are connected. The second was a bad connection I back of fuse box under dash. I'd suggest checking the fuse then seeing if the wire to the back of the fuse box is loose.

Thanks for the speedy reply.

Hey everyone, rookie question. I lowered the valve body to replace the shaft selector seal and noticed this in the drain pan....did this come out of the trans? It's a circular spring. Thanks in advance.

To be honest, nothing is wrong with the 340. It runs and sounds great, but I did plan on putting an efi and torqstorm supercharger on it to get a bit more efficiency and power in the future without breaking the bank. Then I started comparing cost of just getting a g3 hemi to the money I'd put...

Hey everyone, I'm looking to get some advice. I have a 1972 with a mild 340. 340 has a 268 Lunati cam, x heads, and summit headers. Runs great. A guy near me is offering a 2006 5.7 Hemi and trans for 1200. This is a complete power train motor, trans, torc converter, PCM/ECM and wiring harness...

There's a user on here named @Invincibleextremes also on Facebook and Instagram. He makes a kit for mustang brembo brakes for our cars. I feel like he's made a bracket for the srt brembos too or can make them. The mustang bracket only goes for 300.

I ended up moving the jack stands. Came off easy and safely. Thanks for the guidance.

Ok I appreciate it. I had read that someone had not took the tension off the torsion bar with the adjuster and the car moved a bit due to the tension. Just wanted to confirm. Thanks.

Hey everyone, I'm doing my first drum to disc conversion. Before I remove the final bolt in the photo of the backing plate (bottom left), do I need to loosen the torsion bar adjuster first? I apologise for the rookie question.

U.S. Mags Ramblers, 17x7 with 245/45/17s and 18x9.5 with 285/40/18s. Now just waiting for my Wilwood brakes.

Hey guys, I'm trying to get some help with a charging issue on my 72 Charger 340 with fbo electronic ignition coil and an electric choke installed by the previous owner. The previous alternator went bad so I ordered a new one via autozone. It looks identical except for having a ground...

Sounds simple enoguh, thanks again for the help..hopefully it won't be too much of a pain.

Thanks for the response guys. On the starter relay there are 2 red wires with this set up. I thought the red wire with the fusible link went to the ammeter, is that wrong? I also thought there was only one red wire from the starter relay with the stock set up. I have the shop manual at home...
