Re: [FWDLK] torquflite ID needed

[Philippe Courant <accf-club@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On the "linkage" (left) side the only number you could read is a cast
number which doesn't show the applications of the trans.(see my pic at
http://www.ifrance.com/c-/i-f/images2/tqf-thr4b.jpg it's the same than
yours .. )
The identification number is engraved on the right side  on the edge of
the oil pan flange , approx. above the oil filler tube inlet. Often 2
numbers with letters, the right must begin with 17 or 18 or 19 (i.e
1738227, 1854123, 1949256 for NY).
Number location : http://www.ifrance.com/c-i-f/images2/tqfnumber.jpg
(oil pan, regulator, valves etc.. removed). This is a 1738227 from a '57
Imperial. The letter F is a production date code (there were some
improvements during production so you must refer to this letter to know
if your trans. was "improved" or not)
