3600 stall ptc install... After all Mods, custom paint job and everything in between.
My TA is completed except for my stall. Got it coming along with an external trans cooler.
I will be doing the stall n cooler solo, friend has a lift to do so.
What do I need to know about this install? Do I add trans oil once installed n roll car in gear, or what steps should I follow?
Set up got expensive, trying to say a few bucks!
Input welcome...

T/C install, T/C location location location! The best piece of advice I can give you is make sure when you locate the new stall on to the front of the autobox that its on there correctly. Spin it on and you will feel it locate 3 or 4 times as you spin it. This locates the stall onto your pump in the auto box. Just keep spinning it on there until it goes no further.
When you offer up the autobox and have it ready to bolt up you should still be able to spin the T/C around and it should have about 1/8" of free play between it and the flexiplate before you bolt the stall to the flexiplate. This is the most important step in installing a T/C.
If you fail to get this right and the T/C does not spin freely you will damage your pump in you autobox if you bolt it up and its tight against the flexiplate.
I know this from experience when I did a high stall T/C on my 99 Z28 a few years back I only span it on there 3 times instead of 4 and I had to take everything backout and repair the pump in my 4L60e autobox.
Just noticed this guide inthe auto trans section how to remove yout auto box and do a converter swap
