For transmission guys only

I tried to take notes - cuz I figured there would be a test later.

I think I am going to change my course of study.
 
I would bet, most don't have a idea of what is actually on the bench.
 
That was great! Loved the to much fuel in the gas tank! And more billable hours, how accurate that is.
 
Title is inaccurate - even us differential morons can figure out what's going on.
 
Was thinking it was a THm425, looks slightly different. Still a mess.
 
Just remembered I need to swap the tail housing on my a343f with a a340f, switch tcases and shorten and lengthen a shaft or 3.
 
Ha! A TurboHydromatic. Had one in a 73 Olds 98 455. Largest car I (or most people, I dare say) ever owned.
 
That's what they want you to think it is.
Oh that is exactly what it is, it is a Chrysler A470/ A670 transmission from eighties minivan.
Probably used in the "K-car" also, which is the car in the background I believe.

That thing doesn't hold a candle to the Ford Hydroscillator...

So, was the purchase of the K-car or the little beauty below the fastest way to get a big red "L" engraved on your forehead ?

Hahahaha, you said "fast" but referenced Pacer and k-car. I have said for almost 30 years, "nothing built from '74 to '94 is worth owning". Oh there are a couple exceptions, there always are. But by and large, everyone that bitches about cars today has forgotten how shitty is really can be.

You obviously haven’t had the pleasure of driving a compounded 89-93 Cummins with a billet shafted 94-96 lockup transmission.

It didn't come that way, you had to build it. I could make a 1980 Granada fast as hell if I wanted (why I would I never know, but I could).
 
what i love about this, is the dude actually was the chrysler trainer back in the day on the vhs tapes.
 
it gave me a headache after about 45 sec. is there a funny ending?
 
okay, skipped to the end. i wonder if it is harder to read the prompter when it is gibberish, or how much they had to practice.
/not that we would know if they mispronounced something.

burping?
reminds me of a secretary i didn't like very much, not because how she treated me, but how she treated almost everyone else.
anyway, this is back in the late 80s, when PCs had a "turbo" button, and the screen was green and black.
so there was a little program that made sounds like it was washing, draining water, and spin drying.
i told her to run it before she leaves every day or the computer will breakdown eventually.
and she did.
