    Tremec T170 Transmission Troubles (this issue may be a puzzle)

    Shwe, the "missing teeth in picture five" are NOT missing teeth. That is th way the way they are made. A small "rocker " rocks in that space as you shift between the two gears. Syncros and forks and shifters show some minor wear but not enough to effect anything. Nothing out of the ordinary...

    Tremec T170 Transmission Troubles (this issue may be a puzzle)

    To add to JRN's note. To get the top/tower OFF the shifter must be in second gear - and to reinstall the top/tower it again must be in second gear. I doo=bt the problem is inside the gearbox. If it were the rattling around part/piece would have gotten into a gear and broken a toothe by now.

    Loaded Question

    In answer to initial question. It depends on which head and how much is milled? Depends on which cam? Is the Weber jetted correctly? Keep in mind. Electricronic ignition does NOT add HP. 12 volt vs 6 volt does NOT add HP. Be more specific and you get more accurate answer, ken

    When is a "Model A" no longer a "Model A"

    The car or truck will be a "Model A" as long as the state issued title says it is a "Model A." Anything else is opinion. he-he.

    1930 Sport Coupe 11 MPG, backfire when turned off

    Check the soot level - color of your spark plugs. Smell the exhaust. It should NOT smell like a diesel. Check color of exhaust. again, it should NOT be black. Both of these are symptons of running rich, which would account for the 11 mpg.
