Well I just recieved my pressure switches. I got the 44psi, the 50psi, and what was listed as a 54psi, but arrived as a 52psi. Not too happy about that. But they cost me ~$20 total for all 3 and shipping. That $119 kit was a tough nut for me to swallow. I knew I could find them cheaper (he says very self satisfied
I still need to find a source for the vacume switch, the local shivie dealer wants $49 for it. Anyone find one cheaper?
I pulled my tranny open last weekend and found it has been rebuilt and the clutches look good. Now I don't want to mess with it. but I will install the transgo kit I got. The kit was listed for the 518, but doesn't appear to be anything different then the 727/904 kit. I'm pretty disappointed in that, it was $53. Its pretty much a filter, some drill bits and instructions where to drill. I already have drill bits and know where to drill, and filters are a lot less than $53. Save your money boys and check out the old mopar muscle mag articles for the shift kit info.
I've got a spare crossmember that will likely get cut up for the conversion, but the one I saw fabbed from 2"x2" square tubing in the Moparts truck section looks a lot better and easier then remaking an old one. You got to check out this thread if your considering this mod, especially if you have a big block. Totally archive worthy.
