TH400 gear ratios are 2.48:1 for 1st gear, 1.48:1 for 2nd gear and 1.00:1 in 3rd gear.

I am originally from Nebraska, so I FULLY understand that.. I have no desire what so ever to return to the swealtering heat of summer, and the sub sonic temps of the winter.. We have had 78 hours of 80 degrees or higher since last august. and I am ok with it. You spoil your cars rotten, your kids must LOVE you.. :-)

What happened to the garage air conditioner? 101, not sure I would have lasted that long..

Maybe, maybe not.. depends on where the cam actually stopped.. I would go with timing chain before a broken cam, but cam is surely possible.. easy check and only four bolts to get the cover off..

I would do a compression check on all the cyls... or pop the valve cover off to check rockers are moving.. if the timing chain is broke then where ever they stoped, you could be closed on both 1 and 8 cyls.

When you turn the car over does the distro spin ?? Did you check the condensor as well?? Double check and make sure the points are opening and closing. Should see a spark across them when turning over.. Normal everything up, Turn off all the lights in the garage and look for spark somewhere it is not suppoose to be. Hook up a spark plug directly to the coil by pulling the end out of the distro. lay it against the block and check for spark

Your a closet Ford guy admit it.. Take a look at FORD's firing order.. :-)

awesome pictures.. Thanks for sharing...

AWESOME.. Great job Aaron. As usual you come thru for the club..
