  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I got a total of 6 washers, 2 on each mounting bolt. Maybe your trans builder threw them out.:)

    ... sounds about right. I copied your reply about the Washers and sent it to him.

    From Day-1 I asked him about the PUMP WHINE I get from time to time ... especially in 1st gear; sound like a supercharger.
    I actually bought 2 TH400 Pumps ... #121 if I'm not mistaken. Yup ... #121.

    Good morning, ALL.

    This short clip, is to provide a demo of the "Procharger Sound" my TH400 has been making for the past 2 years since the new rebuild.
    My Baby-Girl asked me in shock ... if my TH400 is supposed to sound like this in 1st gear manually; she said it sounds like something is going to BREAK.

    :eek:
