I'm not trying to push any body to a site on your channel Scott but, Precision Transmission on You Tube(He's a racer also..Twin Terb TA).. But they really do great explanations on Transmissions..Everything about them, every kind.....And you probably know him, out of Elpaso Tx I think... If you don't want this on your ch., I understand...He's a great teacher though... Thanx and Roll Tide Neighbor..

Good info Mr Scott I like the fact that you talk to your fans and friends some racers want tell us nothing or want talk at all I have a 1998 chevy camaro with a v6 with no power what chevy motor would you put in it it's just a street car daily driver?????

[@scottschwer5654]

Great video. I just installed a 1/4 midplate and I did not know how to measure for the spacer. Please forgive my newbie question. Where does the spacer go? Is it like washers between the flex plate and converter or does it go on the converter that goes into the flew plate?

[@richardellis3141]

cool

[@jaredspear8140]

Definitely appreciate the tutorial. Curious what happens if the converter is too close? Only been drag racing a couple years and learning as I go. Might be a dumb question to some but I don’t claim to know it all and never will

[@ScottTaylorMotorsports]

If it doesn’t have enough clearance it will eat the pump up in the trans

[@jaredspear8140]

@@ScottTaylorMotorsports makes sense. Appreciate it sir

How or what do you use to keep your toter home gel coat so bright on the outside?

[@TheBobmoorensons]

What's the difference in a loss converter and tight? I here it all the time.

[@hammer310]

It just a difference in where the converter stalls at for instance loose would be high stall and tight low stall

[@timstefanovich405]

How long was John Doe was twin tubo

[@2damnkwik]

what is the purpose of the spacer?

[@benrossbach6501]

How does hp effect spacing?

[@donnylarocque5620]

Torque converter ballooning needs. More hp probably more pressure

[@JonOffgrid]

will this be ok for LS to 700r4 stock motor
