How to Install Torque Converter (Stall Converter) Trans Am Firebird WS6 Camaro SS
This is video on how I installed a Yank Torque Converter in my 2002 WS6 Trans Am. The transmission is a 4L60E or 4L60 I also show how to change transmission fluid and filter as well as add aux Transmission cooler. In the video I had the exhaust off. This is not required to do this. I also did this with jack stands on the ground. It can be done in a driveway. Like I talk about in the video most choose a higher stall speed. I wanted a more friendly driver. The higher the stall speed goes the less streetable it becomes. I did have the exhaust off during install but this is not required to remove transmission. Let me know if you have any questions.

Just subbed, great video. Yea alot of guys don't realize how much can be gained with a higher stall conv. without going into the motor or bolt-ons. Here in Vegas I have t-top '98 T/A in Sebring Silver all stock 2nd owner with 107k. It's so hard to find any that haven't been modified. I get guys coming up to the door wanting to buy it but I won't sell LOL best car I have ever owned. The sun and heat are a bitch on car batteries ( I just replaced the bat the other day lol) (if you can get 3 yrs on a battery here in Vegas you are doing good ) and paint but I keep it under the carport and ceramic coated and it still looks great for a 24 yr old car. I see the prices on these new cars and I appreciate my car that much more LOL

Great information video now I know I could change out my transmission on my 96 TA My transmission went out started slipping and will only run in 1st and 2nd gear 3 and 4 only revs out won't move. And it looked so intimidating to try and change it out I thought you'd have to lift the body off the engine and trans to get it out but I can see now you don't. Those 4L60E transmissions have a flaw in the 3 and 4 clutch packs the piston below them the seals start leaking causing it to lose pressure and burns up 3 and 4 clutches.

Hey bud, I really appreciate these videos, once I watch them over and over a few times, with the right tools I feel I could do it, my next main project is removing the trans, I think my rear main is leaking even though I had it "fixed" a few years back by a shop. I'm not sure what else it could be, I've replaced the oil pan gasket, when I look up into the access plates for the trans, the flexplate area is dry, also the OPSU is dry, I'm thinking it might be the rear main again because I'm not sure if the shop did this or not, but weren't they supposed to put silicone or whatever in the corners.
@TWAMotorsports
@TWAMotorsports 5 лет назад
Thank you Mike. The rear mains are notorious for leaking. If they are not centered correctly the new ones will leak even.

I have a 2000 Firebird wasn't shifting into drive in the winter but when it warmed up it starts shifting so then we thought it was one or two solenoids which I replaced both did not fix that problem and then it started making a clanky noise and took it to a quick lube and they said it was my flywheel another said it was a flexplate since it is an automatic...So how hard is it to Fix cost and was that the issue causing my shifting problems in the winter?

I don't regret the auto. Its actually what I wanted. 10k is a good price for that mileage. Not the cheapest but not too much either. I paid 12,900 for my 2002 a few years back. They are going up in price that's for sure.

was going to remove my trans next month to get it rebuilt stronger than factory, however yesterday when i was driving, the revs would continue to climb and not shift into 2nd, came to a stop, put in neutral and revs climbed to 1000 and stayed there, when light turned green, i put back in drive and it sounded and felt like it banged into gear, finally got it home (fortunately was less than a mile away) checked the fluid level, looked fine, trans has 94k miles and is 20 yrs old. so not sure what happened.

So a higher stall just helps with a quicker response when hitting the gas right ....in basic terms... have you had any problems sliding from the back when you punch it?
@TWAMotorsports
@TWAMotorsports 5 лет назад
Yes. It puts you in the optimal rpm range. If you dont have a good tire it will just spin.
@scottwilson599
@scottwilson599 5 лет назад
Also as you go through each gear, the RPMs dont drop down as much, keeps you up in the ls1s powerband. A higher stall is the single best mods you can do to an a4 F-body. Despite what he said about a "lower" stall to be more street friendly...You can tune the car to lock the converter at any speed say like 50mph and it will feel exactly like stock. As far as street driveability it's all about what your plans with the car are and what you consider streetable. If you are considering camming the car, you don't want a stall like 2800. People run anywhere from a 3200-4000 stalls in otherwise stock Ls1s.

So I'm stuck.. I can't get the exhaust to come off. I have a catback fairly new. Can I just remove the rear panhard bars and let the muffler end drop until it touches the axle? Would this be enough of a tilt for the engine? Really don't want to cut my exhaust and I don't have a torch. Fought with the exhaust for about 4hrs today.

Also I noticed I don't have bottom bell housing bolts. Guessing this is different from ls1 cars. I have a 97 lt1. And at the bottom it was just a aluminum cover which gave me access to the converter bolts. So in guessing I have 6 bolts instead of 8. 🤔🤷

@@TWAMotorsports I did it!!!!!!😃😃😃😃😃😃 4L60E is removed from car. And I did it by myself. So if anyone else read this comment. For LT1 (mines 1997) the bell housing bolts are 14mm and there are 6 of them. 2 on left 2 on top and 2 on right. (There is no 12o clock bolt) I got the 2 on top from the drivers side from behind the trans. The dipstick is hooked up to one of the bolts on passenger side so that's all you have to do to remove the dipstick. It will come off on its own. The 2 transmission lines are 1/2 wrench or whatever the metric size is. I only had a 1/2 wrench and I got it out 1/4 turn at a time. Took me like 30min. Then it pulls out. (No clips holding it in to use a pick). Also you don't need to remove the starter cables. Since there is space to just tuck the starter in away from the trans (LT1). I did this using jack stands on rear axle and for safety I put bricks under the rear tires. In the front I used Rhino ramps, this is a tight fit but I'm small enough to where I could work with it. Once I let the trans down I had to lift the front up and I pulled the trans from the driver side, being extremely careful not to damage the fuel lines. (Caution with the rear jack stands they may want to tilt. Mines tilted slightly when I started to drop the front back down.) Had to re-adjust the rear jacks. Thanks to twa motorsports. Really appreciate you responding to the comments. I'm a complete novice so I was intimidated to do this work and my car has sat for years because off it. Now I feel silly. It wasn't as bad as I thought. Heck the hardest part was getting the exhaust off. Spent like (16hrs getting it off). 😂
