Leebo3 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Umm argh yeah na. I saw ross today and he is waiting for a couple of valves then he can skim the head, blocks all done. So maybe, just maybe i mite get it next week. But i have been saying that for the last 1776393623 weeks so yeah. Gear box is all done, just new seaLs and stuff. Still using the 6 cyl converter too, so that will = high rpm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SYKOV6 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 the six cyl convertor wont do anything to the revs . but with the extra torque of the 8 it might/will turn it into a high stall as normally the convertor and engine are a matched pair using the wrong one can cause probs such as excess heat and heat is what kills trans . do u have an external trans cooler? . talk to ross about it if you cant stretch to a new convertor i have a v8 one u can borrow for a while till i build my c4 dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leebo3 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 I have the cooling lines running to the radiator from the gbox, i will talk to HB trans too, they are the guys that did the work on my C4. Do you need a bellhousing for your C4? Because i have one for a big C4, i couldnt use it because i have the small gbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SYKOV6 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 dont know what bell housing i have i picked up a c4 trans and convertor for free all i know is its a v8 one whether its a 351 or 289/302 one i dont know bring it over one day and ill chuck it up against it to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
