'59 Plymouth Forum

I simply followed your advice and visited the allpar site. I already did that before but I couldn’t find anything. Maybe I wasn’t persistent enough. Here is the page I found yesterday:

http://www.allpar.com/mopar/torqueflite.html

The A-488 is mentioned in the 4 line top down.

PS: Anyhow we know now that it’s called A-466 or A-488. It’s not likely that Chrysler built two different Torqueflites at that time. (Maybe A-466 is the Powerflite?)

Hi Roger,

just stumbled over this old post. You are right, it's the A-466 and I've got this information exactly from this allpar-site

I have just repaired 3 speed manual gearbox with overdrive (B&W).
I have that gearbox manual in Pdf form, if you are intrested I can mail it to you.
That includes also wirings for the function of automatic overdrive.

Hey Ville, attach it here! I'd like to see it too. If it's more than 2MB, let me know and I'll up the posting limit.

Ups, I almost forgot...
Here is link to B&W Overdrive manual, it helps to understand how the transmission works: http://kotisivu.dnainternet.net/wiper/BW_OD_Info.pdf
