GM Turbo 400 HD Intermediate Snap Ring Support
Made in the USA by Adapt-A-Case
Gotta love it! Buy the good clutches, a fancy trans-brake valve body, the HD sprags, all the stuff you can think of to make sure this one won't break. A couple of weeks go by, the customer seems happy. Then the phone rings after the big weekend. It's them explaining how they were well on their way to the finals when they lost 2nd gear, and they're not too happy.
You pull the transmission down to find the intermediate pressure plate deformed and a couple lugs busted out of the case. You realize the lack of support of the snap ring between the 8:00 and 10:00. "If only you would have got that goofy support thing I saw on the Internet... Now I know what it's for!"
Under the increased pressures in today's high performance TH400 transmission applications, the 2nd gear shift slams against the pressure plate that's only partially supported. Is 80% coverage good enough to satisfy your demanding customer?
Adapt-A-Case's support bolts into place from two directions to hold firm through the servo apply pin hole and the h ole originally retaining the band anchor plug.
