So I was coming home from the gas station and my car wasn't going into overdrive. I get it home and check the fluid and it is a little low but not enough for it to not shift. Then there is smoke everywhere and i look and the cat is covered in tranny fluid
I get the car on a jack and see that the case is cracked where the servo cover retainer is

I did just put a shift kit in here but it worked perfectly. Just wondering what you guys think happened??

Well the car is going to be parked now, winter was coming anyway, and i think i want to put either a 5 or 6 speed in it, and if i go that far might as well put a 350 in thats just laying around the garage

 

heres some pics:

 

Sorry to hear, but I have a 700R4 if you are interested. I swapped in for a T-56 and its sitting with my 305.

 

someguy25thz, thanks for the offer but i may be able to just put a bracket over the cover to hold it in place, or save up for the t56 swap myself...

 

no problem, just throwin it out there

 

Does anyone know if it could have been the shift kit that caused this to happen??
