wok 206 Posted December 31, 2022 G'day, just wondering what auto flex plate I use if converting a 221 6 cylinder to C4 auto. I have the C4 auto but it came without flex plate, sandwich plate and torque converter. I'll get a new TC when I get the auto reco'd I guess but just want to source whatever I can beforehand. Also any recommendations for place to rebuild the C4 in melb eastern suburbs ? Thanks in advanceWarren Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wok 206 Posted January 6, 2023 Yes was thinking a B&m Shifter style cable will work, think I have some random leftover brackets from a shifter I had years ago, time rummage thru some boxesNow I'm using the BW35, tailshaft might now be a problem, I remember years ago about a uni with the different size cups to suit early Falcon tailshaft to the 8" diff... possibly ruj-2039 been googling and sizes seem right ?....Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
