    71 Radiator with TH350 - Trans cooler fittings

    I'm looking to replace the radiator in my 71 with stock SBC 350 and TH350 trans. Thus far all the radiators I've come across have 1/2-20 trans cooler fittings where I need 5/8-18. Anyone have any recommendations short of getting 1/2" to 5/8" adaptors or an external trans cooler?

    Holes drilled in TH350 low planetary?

    I'm in the process of rebuilding my Th350. The previous builder had done all the "shade tree" modifications to this transmission, which resulted in fried clutches, broken sprags, and trashed bearings. They removed check balls, removed accumulator springs, and a few other things too I believe...

    Storing a rebuilt tranny

    I'm going to rebuild my TH350 in the near future, adding some performance goodies. I wonder, after the rebuild and with the parts only lubricated during installation, can I store the transmission for longer period (say 1 year) again?
