Transmission - 4/11/2008 5:10:02 PM    hitandrun83   Posts: 48 Joined: 3/3/2007 Status: offline I have a 94 block with 89's heads and intake, we took the 94 transmission and put it on. put 12 quarts of atf4 fluid, fired it up, and the thing shifts really hard in 1st gear. We had to swap outthe cable for the rocker arm deal that the 89 uses for shifting the transmission. any ideas? havnt pushed it further than that, dont want to blow up anything :( Post #: 1

On the older trans it was a rocker set up like the shifter . With out it the oil pressure to the valve body and clutches will not increase with the throttle position . _____________________________ 88 2.2 5SP 95 5.2 Mag A518 8 1/4 Electronic ignition Custom EFI (megasquirt 2.2) (in reply to hitandrun83) Post #: 4
