Ford-O-Matic questions.
Hi gang I am working on an "off topic" '55 T-bird 292 engine and Ford-O-Matic trans that came to me in boxes. I'm pretty comfortable with the engine but the trans or specifically the torque converter is spurring some questions in my mind.
The air cooled converter was disassembled. My first question is, is there a balance issue when I bolt the flywheel/ cover to the aluminum converter housing? There are weights and drillings on the flywheel but I see no obvious balance weighting on the aluminum converter housing. Secondly is there a gasket or sealer used between these two pieces? Third, I am guessing I should use Type "F" trans fluid in this baby. Is that correct? Thanks in advance gang and any help is appreciated. |
