Hi guys great forum!!
I was wondering if there are any over drive opitions for early model 904's?
I have an australian (DAY!!!!) ap5 slant with a push button and would love to keep it original if at all possible, are there any choices??

I found an article at www.allpar.com or www.valiant.org stating that there's a canadian trans shop that makes an adapter for A500 - A518 OD auto trans so they can be cable operated. I don't recall the name or adress but it's out there. Try looking for torqueflite articles. Good luck!

The plate to put a A500/518 behind your Slant is at www.arengineering.com. I have one of these on my '68 Dart (like your Valiant) and an A500. No PB shifter though. The plate works beautifully and is only about 10lbs.

Post subject:  A little clarification for a trans luddite

Can you guys please enlighten me as to what the 500/508 transmissions are and what cars they come from? I am the proud owner of two 3 speed 904 automatics, but was curious about getting and overdrive. But it sounds like I have to get a completely new transmission to do this? =(

Humor the luddite and enlighten me. Ignorance is just plain lame.

The A500/A518 are found in '89-up Dodge trucks and vans. They are larger and longer, so putting them in a car not originally so equipped requires floor pan mods. They are also not nearly as bulletproof as the 727 and 904.

Gear Vendors might make an 904 O/D adaptor but it would cost more than
any of my vehicles are worth..
