Has anyone installed part throttle kickdown on an early 904? Is it possible? If yes I want to do it.

I am running the Lokar cable, transgo, 2200 stall, internal filter and Hayden cooler. Work beautifully except the kickdown. I works but boy do I have to step on it...

Cheers,
BT

I believe Pat Blais (Torqueflite Patty) has a kit he sells on eBay to retrofit part throttle kickdown to the early 904 valve bodies. I don't even think it is that expensive.

Yeah, see the desciption in THIS eBay auction. I have purchased from him several times and he is a top notch supplier and good guy.

Thanks Reed!

It looks like his shop is in Seattle, heck I might just drive the Valiant up and have him do the install, maybe a deep pan too?

Awesome!

I don't know if he actually installs parts, or even has a brick and mortar store. He stuff is first rate though, and he has forgotten more about the torqueflite than I will ever know.

Again great lead. I'll call on Monday, fingers crossed that it is brick and mortar and hands on...

Just got off the phone with Pat Blias. This guy is a wealth of 904 knowledge, and he is setting my 904 with part throttle kickdown. He can do bench work, but not a full shop. Fair pricing too.

Suggested installing a tranny temp gauge on the line to the cooler. Has anyone done this? Real curious to see my temp especially with the stall converter.

Cheers,
Barnaby
