    You're going to need to pull the servo out and weld to the part that contacts the band in order to add length. You'll have to grind it down so that it resembles the way it looked factory. I JUST had this issue with my TH400. There are many videos that show how to determine needed length using a dial indicator. I can never get a repeatable number so I just added .100" to mine and I could probably add just a touch more, but I now have reverse and it doesn't roll with the tbrake engaged. They used to sell a handful of differing lengths and the manuals will show you how to identify them but welding works just fine.

    5 gen camaro's have a "memory system" pursay for the window function that makes them go up and down, when the door opens or shuts. There is a relearn process for this you'd have to look up. I've had this issue with a few camaro's and mustang's.

    Absolute General motors power window crap. My 2002 Z28 had the motor go bad at 71k on the driver's side and not much longer for the passenger side(120k) and my wife's 5th gens passenger window refuses to do the auto let down and up to clear the trim and it only has 140k on it at 14 years old. We've tried resetting it but no dice. You'd think a car company thats been making power windows an option since 1947 would have their shit together by now lmao

    I had that exact same issue on my 2010 SS. Ended up replacing the entire site wiring harness (which was discontinued in 2016 or so) and that didn't really fix it. Took it to a dealership and they replaced the windows motor, regulator, and module which fixed it. Turns out some of the wires that connect at the door can be broken from stress and age. If one of those parts go bad it kills the entire door.

    The overrun clutches should be applied to take a load off of that sprag. With an oem VB you would only beat on it in manual 3rd to activate the overruns. I use the sonnax overrun clutch valve kit that engages the overruns in any gear selection. Not sure how that is working on the EA VB i would have to look into the fluid circuitry.

    Have you guys considered using a belt driven pump? Over the years I've always suffered fuel delivery issues on ethanol in high power cars with electric pumps. Switched to a 6gpm belt drive mounted up front and pulling all the way from the rear tank and never had fuel delivery issues again. When serious electric pumps run over $1k, and have such a limited warranty and generate so much heat, I don't know why more people aren't using mechanical setups.

    • @Calvin-Nelson
      @Calvin-Nelson  2 месяца назад

      Yeah. We actually have a whole setup. They're hard to keep primed without relocating to the back or having an electric priming pump. That's my only resistance. Also, they tend to flow lots of fuel which makes it hot at idle when you are trying to street drive.

    • @jamayajackson5256
      @jamayajackson5256 2 месяца назад

      @@Calvin-Nelson I've managed ok, but I've only gotten into it on blowthrough setups where you have a fuel reserve in the bowls. That's why I've never experienced the priming issues I think. Also only needing a low amount of pressure, I feel like the pump doesn't have to work over such a large range. -12 feed and -10 return with pump up front. Carb and lines keep all that fuel suspended right above the hot engine though, which is a serious downfall, and Lord help me if I ingest a mosquito and it gets lodged in an air bleed haha.
