throwing a trimatic in my vlt atm so far the box is in, all bolted up and as is the converter. also have a tail shaft too suit. now the tricky bits. speedo cable grabbed one from a vk commodore with a trimatic, will it work? susd out the cooler lines and have ran vk commodore ones, same with the vacume modulator thing, vk commodore hard lines. what about the mount, vk doesnt suit was going to make something up from a vn commodore mount iv got? also have a quick sliver shifter..which is looking like a pain in the ass, and grabbed a vk commodore shifter too throw in, too sort that out. any help would be great as its alsmost there! cheers tom

Ur speedo cable has to be made up to suit the vl 6 cluster ring Tony from yarra valley autos $85 ph. 03 9739 5444 As for the crossmember mount get a vl v8 trimatic one cut off the mount Bracket where it's welded to the crossmember and reverse it and weld it on this is how l done mine if you have any probs pm me and l can make it for you at a fee good luck and dummy fit before welding it cheers As for the shifter don't be lazy it's not that hard this is how l fitted mine up Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Wow l didn't know Tony had ripped people off

use vl v8 speedo cable as for x member i used vn v6cy for mine and modded it and it worked fine as for lines just run rubber ones modulator??? wtf lol is that if ya talking about the kick down dont conect it as it wont shift if it comes onto boost u can only run full manualised trimatics in turbo application as they rely on the vaccume for shift points

The modulator at the back of the box u can have it connected it just makes it shift into gear softly when ur cruising around some block it off as they don't mind it shifting hard when cruising either way this doesn't hurt the box if it's full manual

They are going to totaly remove it when my box gets rebuilt.

colin from tradematics in moolap near geelong will have al lthe parts you need for this conversion.
