I have a TH350 that came in my 69 Vert. The previous owner bought it from Jegs, it's probably got less than 2000 miles on it since it was bought.
I fixed the first 2 issues present when I bought the car pretty easily, the pan gasket leaked (overtightened bolts and a cork gasket) and the rooster comb was loose on the shift shaft. Since then it has functioned perfectly.
The trans has always leaked out of the output seal. I replaced the seal and the slip yoke (with a used but unscored yoke) first, then replaced the seal again when I installed a Denny's driveshaft (with a brand new slip yoke) fabricated to work with the QP 9" rear I installed last year. It still leaks quite a bit of ATF past the slip yoke when sitting. It've very annoying.
The engine is being replaced with an LS1 in a few months so I'm gonna pull the trans at the same time. It would be great to resolve the leaky tailshaft once and for all.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Joe
