Thread: 302 Stroker??

The last time out with the coupe it wasn't shifting right, didn't feel right, just pissin' me off. I haven't touched the car since as my aggravation level was just to high. So tonite I figured I better do something with it and after thinking about it all week, I decided to first verify the Throttle Valve pressure setting and discovered that the linkage moved and I had zero pressure when I should've had 22 to 26 psi with the special tool installed.

For those that know, this spells instant death for an AOD, don't supply the right pressure to the clutch packs and bands and they overheat and cook instantly.

My fluid is still pink so I'm holding out hope it'll be okay. But, we'll see tomorrow when I'll try it out. Not a great start to the weekend.
