Is this a non-turbo? There's no lock up clutch in the turbo boxes

when was the last time you had the box serviced??? if you are really unsure take it to a tranny place and tell them what is going on...

Unplug the wires leading to the solenoid on the left side of the bellhousing. This disables the Lock Up Plate. 4th still works.

yeah i am pretty sure it's the lock up clutch. good excuse to put a 2,500 stall in it ready for the turbo conversion. Thanks
