For you guys with the factory service manuals. I am looking for the proper torque spec. for tightening down a valve body for a 47RH.

Good n'tight isn't an answer I'm looking for.
Thanks

 

Doing it on your own? How'd it go? I'm ready to tackle this same job soon...

 

I think it's 100 inch pounds, but I'm not positive.

 

100 inch pounds / 12 N.m per the factory manual

 

Thanks guys, weather permitting I'm putting in a Goerend torque converter and valvebody (along with a front servo lever) this weekend.

 

It will all be worth it for sure! It makes you sick to think how much power the stock converter lets by after you have driven one with a TC of the proper stall speed. But then again, it makes it a lot easier to spend the money because you know how much of a gain you are getting Let us know how it turns out.

Thats the problem, its not a stock converter, its a poorly built aftermarket converter, single disc billet cover. I think the stock converter pulled better, actually I'm very sure that the stock converter pulled better.

We'll get it dialed in and then start the next transmission for my brothers 96.
