Ed,
If you have a T85N, it is the identical length as your original trans. No driveshaft problems. I can usually swap them in and out in less than an hour. The large post on the solenoid is your power, and the small one is the ground that runs over to the governor. It is supposed to ground the curcuit at about 27mph. I ground the governor because I only run the overdive on the highway and interstate, and that's where I spend most of my time. I don't use a harness, just a toggle switch. I have 35 inch tires on my 57 chevy and a 3.90 rear gear. I can run about 70mph at 1500rpm. I can almost afford to drive it now!!! Well at least I could before the planetary set came apart!! Thats why I was asking for help locating parts to fix it. It actually took round planetary gears a made them straight!! Bad transmission!! If I can figure the picture thing out, I'll show pics.
Oly has listed a great site about wiring and rebuilding the trans! Thanks!
I hope rfs56trk can come up with actuall shops that can get me some parts to fix this thing. I guess the other way to go is buy another one for parts, but my luck will have the planetary gears bad in it too!
Thanks for the info so far, guys!!
Brad
