  1. The 360hp and 390hp had different carbs.
  2. Need details on how to replace shift shaft on a Turbo 400. After dropping the pan what is next? How much diassemble is required? how difficult is it? All help is appreciated. Thanks
  3. George, well the seal in my 400 Turbo has a metal outside, with the rubber seal being inside the trans. There is no way I can get it out without damage to the shift shaft or the trace where seal sets.
  4. An additive to you auto-transmission fluid that stops small leaks. Lucas Oil has a product shown in their catalog.
  5. Can I replace the shift shaft seal in my 1970 Monte with a turbo 400 without removing the trans? What if it has headers? Please give me your suggestions on replacing this seal.
  6. David, thanks for the welcome, I have read this forum for sometime, decided it was time to get on board. I am very familar with the firt generation Monte's having been involved with the NMCOA for 16 years and having a few first generations in my garage today (one being a 70SS454 as noted by the 1SUPER70). I have seen many Monte's in the junk yards but this one was different with the Landau roof, and the build sheet showing it as a "Soft Roof Cover". The welded in post where the clips attach to hold the trim on was beyond what any shop I know would go to, most just drill a hole and attach clip via a pop rivet. All I was able to salvage was the trim (in good shape) and about 1/3 of the build sheet. As noted this car was loaded with many options, sure wish it had been in better shape.
  7. A Landau top thought to be factory on a 1970 Monte. I took the top trim off of this car(which was in sad shape) because I had never seen this before and thought it to be very rare. The trim was held in place with factory type welded pins where the clips attach. I was able to find part of a build sheet in said car, PW,PS,(tilt)AC, Console, 273 ratio axle, LS3 400 engine, turbo 400,4-way power bucket seat (driver's). On the build sheet was C08 listed as SOFT ROOF COVER. All other listings of C08 I have seen are listed as roof cover vinyl. Let me have your thoughts.
