hi Pete....
*the fluid was full...i dismounted the trans from the vette now and i will open it in next weeks..i have to make some tools first...
*fluid smels a little bit, but is not brown..is normal red..like new condition...
*shifter linkage worked properly since i drove with the car 60 mils and everything worked perfect...only problem i noticed was harsh engagemant..it was very severe...but then it worked great...
*everything was new..filter oil....there was no leakage...
*converter bolts were on

i also first assumed that the pump is gone...i will see..i will keep you informed...
i will check also forward apply piston...there is also no reverse;/...
there is no gear at all...when i put in any position there is no effect..

Pete it happend between i drove..there was no noise or bump before this...it was in Drive position...i drove normaly 40 mils/h after some cars infront of me...and then when i tried to accelerate...it was like in neutral...
it was not like last time when my 3-4 burnt out...but 1-2 stil worked properly...and the oil was also brown...i hope i dind't burn the clutches..
i have Raybestos blue plate clutches in...
Thanx for now..
BR,Seba


the trans is in my garage now...so i will disasamble it in a while,,,

More info is needed before any guess can be made.
Fluid full?
Fluid burnt?
Shifter linkage working properly?
Filter cracked, broken, or leaking anywhere including the o-ring?
Converter bolts verified to be installed, and tight?

Forget about the ATSG for the moment. It is very useful on a stock trans. Once major mods are done to the hydraulic's, all bets are off. If you are lucky, you broke the pump, or a the forward apply piston (assuming reverse still works).

Check the ATF fluid color, hope its still bright red! Maybe Trans guy lift out a check ball or spring, converter should lockup at 45 mph. Just a thought.

Just what I said. You don't need 5 pinion planetaries. I have stock 4 pinion planetaries in my own car, and every 700 I have built for others.
Unless you plan on making 700+ horsepower they are not the weak link.
If you do plan on making 700HP, then there are dozens of other weak links before the planetaries become a concern.
It is a $400 dollar expense.
If you are insistent to buy them, it won't hurt anything but your budget.


will 4 pinions hold a 383 cid and arround 450 HP?

BR,Seba



Please re-read my post. I am not sure how much more clearly I can say that you don't need them for the power level you are making. If your heart is set on the 5 pinions, you can install them with no concerns.


thanks pete;)...i will buy only missing 4 pinion;)..ant the right other kits;)...BR,Seba
