Re: 1986 jeep grand wagoneer

["Jim Blair" <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

A: As a member of AMC-list and multiple Jeep lists, plus a 727 trans 
afficionado, I'd like to point out that I can get the torque converter from 
Sea-Tac transmission in South Seattle in various stall speeds. IIRC, 1200 
was stock stall for the V8s and 1500 for the 6 cyls. The only way to tell if 
your trans is lockup or not is to pull the trans pan and see if there is a 
5/16" S shaped tube on top of the valve body, or remove the trans and see if 
the hole in the middle of the trans input shaft is much deeper than 1 1/2". 
(shallow is non-lockup. Deep has a hole that the oil for the lockup passes 
through to engage the lock clutch)
