green bay,,as far as heat,,i don't think so, that tail shaft is full of oil,
the only thing i am not sure of is that i had to grind the shaft down a few thousands. i am more worried of spliting the shaft. but i think it will be ok,,, ia am not going to race it. do burn outs etc... what i might do is machine a new casting that holds the bushing. Since its comes out, then i can keep the org. size of shaft. and get a larger needle bearing. machined to fit. rik

Hi,,all,,
with my 400, i am going to leave the strips off, or remove the stripes.. they do hold rust... so the 400 would have the look of a caribbean and an exe. but i also thought of making a tool with wheels for each channel. for on the car use the moldings to keep it straight while rolling it. rik

My thought is the other way, the needle would give more pressiure.,, the big problem with the ultramatic is when the bushings wear you lose oil pressure.
The only bushing with an oil hole are the bell housing and rear pump. For the bell housing, i think the needle bearing, will reduce or stop the oil leak from the front seal. Yes this is R&D project..but if i can get it to work, the transmission will last alot longer. as the saying goes,,ANOTHER PACKARD FIRST,,,, rik
