Default Re: '54 / '55 Fordomatic ID ?

This is sounding like I need to lengthen the TV rod slightly to increase the pressure, to hopefully avoid the slipping when starting off from a stop that it's experiencing. I have been manually shifting it most of the time to help avoid that misbehavior.

The transmission was rebuilt before I reinstalled it and the engine. Using Mercon transmission fluid recommended by the rebuilder.
The linkage(s) at the intake manifold are 1957. You say the car came with a 256 and the trans came with the car? Before you start anything, you are going to have to ID the trans and go from there.

When all is assembled correctly, proper TV pressure is going to have to be set with a pressure gauge.
