Ok, so I could post about the hours of trial fitting, mocking up and the need to file out the bolt holes until number 7 pipe for my TTI headers would line up with the holes in the cylinder head. About 3 hours or so.

I wil mention the ease with which I made up the necassery exhaust section all match up to the new headers and how it sits high and clear of speed bumps etc.

And the there's the pleasure of firing the car up and hearing how sweet it sounds through the new headers.

For about two minutes. And then I saw the smoke.

Satan blood as I will call it is transmission fluid which was pouring out over the exhaust, my garage floor and shortly afterwards, me.
That stuff has the viscosity to cover everything in site as any of you with trans incidents will know.
So I crawled under the car with a touch, wiped everything down and saw the trans cooler pipe hanging off.
I knew I'd loosened it to move the trans lines clear of the headers, but I knew I'd tightened it up.

So, yes the thread was cross threaded either by me or a PO but I had lots of fun trying to remove it from behind the headers.

Anyway, I need a new trans thingy union to get me back on the road
Please see my wanted as if you can help.

Now drinking cider

Yea that has happened to me too, lately it was a vette, and it was PS fluid pretty much same thing, it blew every where, it gets in places unimaginable.

Get your part and fix it and have fun

I will Drew, it did sound nice thru the headers.

Just when you think you've got the job done !!!!
Feel for you mate. Sure you'll get it sorted soon.
And yes . My recent trans line incident made hell of a mess !!!

Used to always have some of those brass fittings to hand back in the Torqueflite days. I'll have a look in my box of tricks at work Tomorrow, if there's none there they went with all the rest of my stuff.

Is this what your after Miles?If so send me your address and i'll post it to you

You just gotta love classic cars!

I've lost count of the amount of times I've done one thing to only Bananarama! up another. It will always be a part that's hard to get too!
