Thrust Plate
Inspect the camshaft thrust plate for excessive
wear in the camshaft contact area. Measure thrust
plate thickness using the CAMSHAFT THRUST
PLATE THICKNESS CHART . Replace any thrust
plate that falls outside of these specifications:
CAMSHAFT THRUST PLATE THICKNESS CHART
9.34 mm (0.368 in.) MIN.
9.58 mm (0.377 in.) MAX.
INSTALLATION
INSTALLATIONÐCAMSHAFT BEARINGS
(1) Apply a coating of Loctitet640 Adhesive to the
backside of the new bushing. Avoid getting adhesive
in the oil hole.
(2) Use a universal cam bushing installation tool
and install the bushing so that it is even with the
front face of the cylinder block. The oil hole must be
aligned. A 3.2 mm (0.128 inch) diameter rod must be
able to pass through the hole (Fig. 97).
(3) Measure the installed bushing. The limit of the
inside diameter is 54.133 mm (2.1312 inch).
INSTALLATIONÐCAMSHAFT
(1) Lubricate the camshaft bushing and bores with
fresh engine oil or suitable equivalent.
(2) Liberally coat the camshaft lobes, journals, and
thrust washer with fresh engine oil or suitable equiv-
alent.
CAUTION: When installing the camshaft (Fig. 91),
DO NOT push it in farther than it will go with the
thrust washer in place. Pushing it too far can dis-
lodge the plug in the rear of the camshaft bore and
cause an oil leak.(3) Install the camshaft (Fig. 91) and thrust plate.
Align the timing marks as shown in (Fig. 89).
(4) Install the thrust plate bolts and tighten to 24
N´m (18 ft. lbs.) torque.
(5) Measure camshaft back lash and end clearance
(Fig. 98).
(6) Remove the wooden dowel rods and rubber
bands from the tappets.
(7) Lubricate the push rods with engine oil and
install in their original location (Fig. 87).Verify that
they are seated in the tappets.
(8) Lubricate the valve tips with engine oil and
install the crossheads in their original locations.
(9) Lubricate the crossheads and push rod sockets
with engine oil and install the rocker arms and ped-
estals in their original locations (Fig. 86). Tighten
bolts to 36 N´m (27 ft. lbs.) torque.
(10)Verify valve lash adjustment (Refer to 9 -
ENGINE/CYLINDER HEAD/INTAKE/EXHAUST

INSTALLATION
(1) Check torque converter hub and hub drive

Polish the hub and notches with 320/400 grit paper
and crocus cloth if necessary. The hub must be
smooth to avoid damaging pump seal at installation.

(5) Carefully insert converter in oil pump. Then
rotate converter back and forth until fully seated in
pump gears.
(6) Check converter seating with steel scale and
straightedge (Fig. 65). Surface of converter lugs
should be 1/2 in. to rear of straightedge when con-
verter is fully seated.
(7) Temporarily secure converter with C-clamp.
(8) Position transmission on jack and secure it
with chains.
(9) Check condition of converter driveplate.
Replace the plate if cracked, distorted or damaged.
Also be sure transmission dowel pins are seated
in engine block and protrude far enough to
hold transmission in alignment.
(10) Raise transmission and align converter with
drive plate and converter housing with engine block.
(11) Move transmission forward. Then raise, lower
or tilt transmission to align converter housing with
engine block dowels.
(12) Carefully work transmission forward and over
engine block dowels until converter hub is seated in

CAUTION: Many of the valves and plugs, such as
the throttle valve, shuttle valve plug, 1-2 shift valve
and 1-2 governor plug, are made of coated alumi-
num. Aluminum components are identified by the
dark color of the special coating applied to the sur-
face (or by testing with a magnet). Do not sand alu-
minum valves or plugs under any circumstances.
This practice could damage the special coating
causing the valves/plugs to stick and bind.
Inspect the valves and plugs for scratches, burrs,
nicks, or scores. Minor surface scratches on steel
valves and plugs can be removed with crocus cloth
butdo not round off the edges of the valve or
plug lands.Maintaining sharpness of these edges is
vitally important. The edges prevent foreign matter
from lodging between the valves and plugs and the
bore.
Inspect all the valve and plug bores in the valve
body. Use a penlight to view the bore interiors.
Replace the valve body if any bores are distorted or
scored. Inspect all of the valve body springs. The
springs must be free of distortion, warpage or broken
coils.
Check the two separator plates for distortion or
damage of any kind. Inspect the upper housing,
lower housing, 3-4 accumulator housing, and transfer
plate carefully. Be sure all fluid passages are clean
and clear. Check condition of the upper housing andtransfer plate check balls as well. The check balls
and ball seats must not be worn or damaged.
Trial fit each valve and plug in its bore to check
freedom of operation. When clean and dry, the valves
and plugs should drop freely into the bores.
Valve body bores do not change dimensionally with
use. If the valve body functioned correctly when new,
it will continue to operate properly after cleaning and
inspection. It should not be necessary to replace a
valve body assembly unless it is damaged in han-
dling.
The only serviceable valve body components are
listed below. The remaining valve body components
are serviced only as part of a complete valve body
assembly. Serviceable parts are:
²dual solenoid and harness assembly
²solenoid gasket
²solenoid case connector O-rings and shoulder
bolt
²switch valve and spring
²pressure adjusting screw and bracket assembly
²throttle lever
²manual lever and shaft seal
²throttle lever shaft seal, washer, and E-clip
²fluid filter and screws
²detent ball and spring
²valve body screws
²governor pressure solenoid
²governor pressure sensor and retaining clip
²park lock rod and E-clip
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Do not force valves or plugs into place
during reassembly. If the valve body bores, valves
and plugs are free of distortion or burrs, the valve
body components should all slide into place easily.
In addition, do not overtighten the transfer plate
and valve body screws during reassembly. Over-
tightening can distort the housings resulting in
valve sticking, cross leakage and unsatisfactory
operation. Tighten valve body screws to recom-
mended torque only.
LOWER HOUSING
(1) Lubricate valves, springs, and the housing
valve and plug bores with clean transmission fluid
(Fig. 301).
(2) Install 3-4 timing valve spring and valve in
lower housing.
(3) Install 3-4 quick fill valve in lower housing.
(4) Install 3-4 quick fill valve spring and plug in

(5) Install timing valve end plate. Tighten end
plate screws to 4 N´m (35 in. lbs.) torque.
