Can someone give me a nice clear picture of a clean A904 like on the transmission page I put together. I'll add it to the site. What year and model did it come on? What is needed to make it work and what can be done to upgrade them?
From Wikipedia
TorqueFlite - A904
For standard-duty applications in smaller and lighter vehicles with Slant-6 or small V8 engines, with relatively modest torque and a compact case, the A904 (later 30RH) was introduced in 1960. This transmission used a 10.75 in (273 mm) torque converter. There was also a "Baby" case version of this transmission used in Dodge Colt/Plymouth Champ imports(made by Mitsubishi in Japan), these used a 10 in torque converter.
Is this the "baby" case version? If so, is it strong enough to match the normal one behind the V8s?
Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
According to that list, This AMC Hornet 4dr that I have could be a 904.. HHhmm. I wonder how different the internals are compared to this auto from that 87 bishi truck.
