Re: sandblasting and a TorqueFlite?

I would wrap it & blast.  Dust and dirt can get in the bellhousing area if you have an engine covering the hole, or a plastic tarp wrapped around it!  I would change the front seal at some point as a CYA while I had it apart, blasting or not!

Subject: sandblasting and a TorqueFlite?

 

Hi all,

 

A gent is working on a 1963 and asked for opinions. Any thoughts? Here are his concerns:

 

>>I  have the Dodge disassembled but I  still have the transmission in the car thinking I would cover it up...however, many guys think I should remove the trans. The car only  has 44,xxx miles, I thought leaving it in was the best approach. I cannot  see a rebuild needed. But guys tell me "remove the TorqueFlite: why risk getting sand in the transmission?" and speculate that even though the trans has low miles the seals are old and the rebuild is a good idea anyway.
