Im freshening up the ol' powerglide with new seals, etc and have a few questions. Any idea on how many quarts this will take?
I have it out of the car and will drain the convertor too. What amount is good to put back in this?
Also, does a powerglide have a filter?
I found a source for the Type A fluid so I will be using that. I'll be replacing all O-rings such as fill tube, speedometer gear housing etc. Also shifter shaft seal, front pump and rear housing seal.
If I missed anything, please let me know.
Just about done with the 283's spruce up. Thorough cleaning, painting and a new gasket set installed. This one is so clean inside, you could eat off of it. According to the paperwork that came with car, this engine was rebuilt and installed in 1975. Should have about 27,000 miles on that rebuild. (and shows it) She purrs like a kitten and absolutely no smoke or noise.
Here it is:
