1968 Plymouth GTX

Bill did transmissions at a Dodge dealership. He did my A100 and somehow it worked. Give him a call to see if he wants to do it.

Anybody rebuild their own transmission?

Also, looking at headers, the Headman Headers I purchased for my signature car have gone up $500 in price to over $800 a pair now!!! They have the uncoated ones for about half that price.

What are y'all using and what diameter pipes. I was thinking 3" diameter with Hush Thrush Turbo mufflers.

Was a trans tech for many years.

They are not rocket science to build if your so inclined

Is there a particular rebuild kit you would recommend?

Not yet! I am thinking of taking this on myself.

I got my parts for the A100 from here....

Rebuild Components - A&A Transmissions

I don't think there were any issues.

Thanks Jim!

I pulled the torque converter out and it has this number on it. Not sure what that means?

Me either. I put a new one in the A100 since it was a BluePrint 408 and makes its power higher in the band. My cars are all built for max torque at 3000 so I had them rebuilt as the factory stall speed is what I needed. The transmission shop sent them out for me. That was before I had my own personal TorqueFlight expert at my fingertips

Danger here is you don’t know what the stall speed is and it could be way off with your motor build
