Picked up a new torque converter I ordered last Tuesday. If the specs are correct, it's a bit looser than the OEM. Factory is about 1600-1800 stall speed, this one 1900-2300.

Transmission is in place. Just needs fluid and tightening some bolts ^ nuts of the other components. Lining up the rear exhaust pipes will be a PITA.

Transmission is installed. Only thing left to do before fillig it up & testing if it works is to flush the oil cooler. I can hardly wait!

Update!

I cleaned the oil cooler with some throttle body cleaner and blew it dry with a vacuum cleaner. Filled it up and it works!
Next would be taking the car to a road test.

Ran with an issue with the bbk crank pulley. It's missalingned ant the belt jumped a track and was damaged. Guess I put the pulley backwards? I already got a replacement belt.

The belt issue is fixed. As I suspected, the crank pulley was installed backwards. Also a little longer belt was needed. Continental Part #4060889. It had a Gates #5060885 with the stock setup.

The serpentine belt was still having issues with the underdrive pulleys. I had to flip the crank pulley again and replace the alternator with a smaller pulley and idler with a larger one. I had an old 88.2' belt and that sorted it out. I Should've left it stock lol.

It's a love/hate relationship

The bloody belt thing is driving me crazy. And the a/c is not working. I thought it needed a recharge. Nope! Thing's full to the gills.

Haven't done anything to the car. I don't seem to find the energy or desire to do anything to it lately. We'll see if I do later on.

I haven't touched the bloody car since that last post. The weather here has been pretty rainy these past weeks. Guess I'll wait 'till the weekend to see if I do something to it.
