I bought my '57 T-bird last Aug. Initially, the transmission did not shift correctly due to a valve that was installed backwards. Ken Smizinski assisted me with this on the prebuy inspection of the car. I would like know the location of this valve and get a general idea of what it looks like. I know we cannot disassemble a trans, but I'd like to have a general idea of the vales location and function.

Dave-
Just got off the phone with Ken. The governor which is on the output shaft in the tail section of the transmission is what was on backwards. Either the tail section of the trans or the whole trans will have to be pulled out to get to it.
