"I got some interesting replies on the lifter issues. I think the point most people have missed is the fact that 7/100ths of an inch is a big visible difference. Tolerances for these parts are in the 1000ths and 10,000ths, not 100ths. I had a…"
"Those a transmission inspection pan bolts. They go thru the adaptor ring and trans inpection pan at bottom.See yellow arrows:"

Unknown part, maybe the last one?
Hithanks to great help from chapter members I am getting my 64 Deville ready, slowly but surely.There is only one part still unclear, or actually three bolts and nuts. They are clearly different from other bolts, so probably those are for certain purpose. Any ideas?See More

"Great to read that you got to the source of that annoying "tick" and that Dino is back on the road again. And that engine compartment looks soooo good! I never knew these cars had so much gold cadmium under the hood."
"Tony, You have what I am saying backwards. The lifter was significantly shorter than the others --> 7/100ths of an inch. It is my belief that when the springs got a bit worn and couldn't compensate for the shorter lifter, resulting in…"
"Just to add the head rebuild could be an article in itself. I dropped a valve just around the corner from the house, had the car towed to a touted "old car school professional" to have heads pulled and rebuilt. It sat there 2 weeks and I…"
"You indicated the bad valve lifter was mushroomed on the cam lob side and difficult to remove from its bore for that reason ( ice solution )
The mushrooming that happened should be responsible for the reduction in height of that lifter I would…"

1963 series 62 convertible transmission issue
Posted by Matthew VanDeWater on June 22, 2021 at 3:03pm 1 Comment 0 Likes
Hello I've been restoring a 63 for way to many years. Down to almost done, but have issue with trans linkage, when column in park shift rod 2 inches short. everything original. been trying to find picture of manual rod hooked up from under car to see position of linkage. was wondering if anybody has access for pictures. I wanted to see if my manual linkage is bent wrong out of the trans if somebody dropped the trans or something. Doesn't make sense why it doesn't work. Thanks for any input…

Torque converter grab when idling in Drive
Posted by Cliff Johnston on June 14, 2021 at 8:47pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Hi Everyone, been quite a while since i have been on here.
I have had an issue with the idle on my 64 Coupe Deville ever since i have had it.

And therefore it tends to sit there and grab and lunge a bit. So until now, i have been putting the car in Neutral at the lights to stop this happening.
I've had the car dyno tuned and…

Hello!
Newbie to the group here - we have already found tons of invaluable information on the board, so thanks! We are restoring a 1963 Series 62 Convertible. We are wondering if anyone knows of a source to buy the propellor yoke flange (that bolts to the pinion flange) for the driveshaft? One of our ears partially broke off. Not sure if we can buy just the yoke flange as an aftermarket part, or if it has to be rebuilt by a welder/fab guy? Maybe a salvage yard for a source? Again, any…
