That the transmission cooler circuit fluid pressure is so low that the 12-14 psi max of coolant pressure in the radiator can force coolant into the trans fluid instead of trans fluid into the coolant shows just how "bulletproof" and "heavy duty" the TorqueFlite "family" is and how much "engineering" really went into the "modern" TorqueFlites as they "evolved" from light-duty passenger car slushboxes "developed" before Chrysler had pressurized and "sealed" cooling systems with "high pressure" radiator caps and "overflow containers" aka expansion reservoirs. That "always in gear" TorqueFlites are constant-slip automatic fluid cookers waiting to happen in any and all "heavy duty" applications and situations but also have "issues" with "cold" fluid and "respond negatively" to "overcooling" and need a "trans heater" in "artic climates" is more proof of how "legendary" they really are. TorqueFlite fantards should look up legendary in the dictionary to see how right they are but for all the wrong reasons. Being "legendary" is not synonymous with being "great" or otherwise excellent in "performance" as a "total package".
Wow fully animated! Used to watching the slides & "flip record to other side".
This video made me feel old.
WoW! This was made the year I was born!
...wonder how many Torqueflites from then are still rolling around today?
Interesting video :)
Still got a modified Torqueflite in my old Challenger but thinking about upgrading to a five or six speed.
Loads, they are bullet proof, I have one in my Jensen Interceptor 😎
@@mell3109 Yeah. Right. Put one behind a real engine and really work it.
@@ZENIGMATV "Upgrading"? ROFLMAO.
@@deeremeyer1749 I'm running a 904 behind a 770hp engine in my drag car and it holds up just fine
I just discovered these videos. they are awesome! thank you for sharing them!
This video is AWESOME.
It's pretty trippy.
At 7:20 look at the odometer 31.6 miles
I learn alot of Chrysler tech facts from these you share.. do you happen to have a warehouse of new old stock parts as well?
Sorry, I do not have that
Never know haha.
