pontiacfreak142 Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 My dad just bought an older B&M hole shot torque converter for the mustang. Problem is, it wont fit. The torque converter that was in it only has 2 different sets of spline's (i think is the word), and the new one has 3. Could this be the reason it wont fit? All converters ive found say for 80-92 AOD trannies, But all we can come up with is it being a lock up/non lock up converter, but dont see how that would keep it from going on.

pontiacfreak142 Posted September 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 The mustang is an 82, but the tranny isnt not original. a buddy of ours got it from some one else and built it up, but has no idea what year its out of. not sure what you mean, but heres a few pics if they help. http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj294/pontiacfreak142/DSC00641.jpg http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj294/pontiacfreak142/DSC00642.jpg old converter http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj294/pontiacfreak142/DSC00645.jpg new converter http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj294/pontiacfreak142/DSC00644.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
