200-4R build it's starting Complete

[V8 Rumble]

Took it out for a spin today and it was great. It really is nice to cruise without screaming at high rpms at low speeds.

The only thing going on is the lock up is coming on a little early sometimes. according to the painless wiring lock up kit I need a delay valve to remedy it.

Otherwise I'm in love with my malibu all over again.

Glad to hear that it's in the car and running. That's a huge accomplishment...nice work, Joe.

Jack,

Thank you. I am so happy it turned out well. I had some great input from the members here and help from friends and family. That makes it worth it.

Maybe next time in in FL well tackle your 200-4R 😀

I may take you up on your offer...😉
I have to start purchasing all the needed parts. First off, I need to replace the center support. Some yo-yo who had taken it apart before took a chunk out of the area where the large O-ring goes.
Is there a source that you would recommend that dismantles and sell transmission hard parts?
I used to see them on Ebay occasionally...not lately, though.

Jack ,

Cobra transmission had a good selection of new and used parts.

Thank you, Joe,
I did find the Cobra Transmission site just before I read your reply. They have the center support that I need...very reasonable...some parts, not so much. Thank goodness for competition.
I first looked at WIT, but they did not show any available.

Joe,
I purchased the center support from Cobra Transmission. They also happen to be in my state, which is convenient.

I had a question about the 3-center support sealing rings. The replacement did not have them on it, so I thought I could reuse the ones from my old support. Well, I was able to get them off, but unable to reuse them...they broke. The small locking end snaps off, which makes them useless.
Do these come in any kit, or do you have to purchase them separately? Also, when you install them, do they easily lock together by squeezing them?

Also, do they make Teflon replacements to eliminate the iron rings?

I think guys use Teflon rings that go to a 4l80e. I used the iron ones that were on there. Obviously that isn't going to work for you.

Thanks Rich,
I guess I have the option to go with either or. If the replacement center support already had the iron rings on there, I'd leave 'em alone. I thought I saw them listed somewhere, but wasn't sure if it was feasible to use them.
