My trimatic has been pulled apart which gave me some 'not so good news'.
Bits of V8 and bits of 6cyl, parts filled with silicone, aluminium putty, weld spots, sprag is next to useless and a bunch of other problems.
Housing, some threads have been cross threaded and hairline cracks in the back.
Valve body comes from a 6cyl
A number of old 2nd hand parts were used to put this together!

So it's scrap metal then Blocker?
Looks like most will go to sims metals, however the Goatman came to the rescue tonight and I picked up one of his spare traumatics!Originally Posted by Gaddy
Hopefully this one will yield some good parts or be good enough for a rebuild.

Sweet! Things are looking up then!
Good news the Goatman's transmission has been pulled apart and is good enough to be reconditioned, with a variety of new parts etc. It should be ready in a couple weeks.
My 6 digit speedo arrived today () so I pulled out the 7 digit speedo to compare them.
The housing is exactly the same, there are different supplier markings on the top white section of the rear housing (for those who care).
Also the 6 digit's text is thinner which makes it look more raised off the backplate. I'm not sure if the 7 digit has been refurbished (unlikely knowing the previous owner) but the two screws on the fascia are different as well... (once again for those who care).

just as a bit of interest regarding trimatics..there is over 50 interchangeable parts from 4 cyl 6 cyl and 8 cyl.that should not be interchanged..no wonder there is so many pg13ed gearboxes out there
