Well I'm buying a 250 I6 to build up as a fun project, to eventually replace the 200 I6 I have now. I went and saw it run in a 68 Falcon from which it will be pulled. I'm getting the tranny too. Reverse gear works, and 2nd and 3rd too. No 1st gear. Any Ideas? The guy is pulling the engine tranny this afternoon. My 200 C4 transmission works great, but is the 250 tranny a V8 tranny (more clutch packs)as is the bellhousing? 250/302 bellhousing is the same and different from the 200 bellhousing. The engine is D2DE-6015-AA so I know it is a 1972 combo (not a 68)...
I didn't remember to try that, now it's too late he called me and said it's all removed and on the driveway. I was thinking it's a linkage problem maybe as 1st and reverse are common??? I don't know what a sprag is I'm afraid.. thanks..
C4's are easy and cheap to rebuild. Get yourself a manual from autozone, library, or most parts stores can hook you up with a good one and go from there. Rebuild kit (clutch plates, steel plates, gaskets, seals) is usually around $200, IIRC...depending on who you get it from. Or you can pay someone to do it all for you. More money but more convenient too.
