58-61 Iron PG
I've been measning to ask this question after juding at the FL Regional. I usually judge chassis and in this case both cars were 61 PG's, quite unusual, My question is on the front (bellhousing) of the transmission where the torque convert is housed, there is a 1/2" threaded hole in the bottom of the housing. Is there supposed to be a 1/2" plug there or it is left open. Both cars at the meet did not have this plug. Mine did when I bought it 20 years ago. I did ask the team leader, but he did know and there is nothing in the new JGTIM.

Re: 58-61 Iron PG
Mike I've been going back and forth with Rich Mauser on what these plugs are supposed to look like. Mine is a standard plumbing square plug. Rich sent me some photo's but neither of his PG had a plug. Are you able to send me a photo of yours. ThanksComment
