Okay guys, I finally got the car running with the right converter. However, I'm not out of the woods yet. I have two wires with plugs at the end...
Well guess what everyone? It turns out that the guy who ordered the converter ordered the wrong one--he was really apologetic. He ordered for...
I was told he pulled it out of a 65. I still haven't pulled the wire from the starter while I have it running to see if it's a solenoid/wiring...
Everything was ordered for a 66 mustang, or so I was told. The only thing I wasn't responsible for ordering was the torque converter with the ring...
I used a different starter. I even went down to the mustang shop and the guy swapped the starters because it looked like the bendix, on the one I...
Excellent post PaulS. I'm too afraid to keep the engine running while I disconnect the starter. The noise sounds very damaging. When I had the...
Yea, I have the plate between the bellhousing and the engine and a dust shield on the bottom half. The plate for the manual that was initially in...
the pilot bearing would have prevented me from getting the converter in place to bolt on to the flexplate
I took the pilot bearing out because the converter has that knob on it that goes in place of the pilot bearing.

Yea, I had to put a flexplate on there and the ring gear is on the torque converter. So that is why I had to swap starters.
Hey guys, I just did a 3 speed manual conversion to auto on my g/f's 66 mustang. Everything is installed (except neutral safety switch) and when I...
Mine has a fitting on it. I wish I had a rubber hose on both ends, but I only have one that connects to the vac mod valve. I guess I need to find...
For those 6 cylinder guys out there, where does the vacuum modulator line hook up to? Is it the plate between the carb and intake manifold or does...
Okay, got the pilot bearing out with a slide hammer and I'm almost done. However, when I went to hook up the vac modulator line, I don't see a...
Thanks ratio411. How do I pull that out??
Here's a picture of it. [IMG]
Hey everyone, as I was trying to get the converter studs to line up with the holes on the flexplate and I noticed the center knob on the converter...
I just know you have to slide it down the input shaft properly so it seats. Wiggle and slide it forwad at the same time. If it doesn't go in...
Okay, I'm ready to install the tranny, but I'm not sure how many quarts of oil go in? I believe it's five or so, but I may be wrong. Also, how...
