1957 Powerglide - parts help
Need help finding a correct speedometer gear fitting and retainer for my cast iron powerglide? Also, will need a vendor source and recommendation on the best speedometer drive gear (# of teeth) to start with? Paragon does not list many parts for the cast iron powerglides. I have included some photos to accompany my questions.
What is the correct kickdown linkage for a 57 Fuelie? I don't think this linkage is correct. Any vendors sell the correct linkage?
I bolted up the automatic shifter, but the clevis included with the shifter will not fit the shift lever on the transmission. Any ideas on where I can get a correct sized clevis? Would a transmission shop be able to help?
Lastly, I need a correct drain plug for the transmission. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Wondering how you made out with the kick-down linkage. Did the parts you have in the picture work ???
I am looking for 57 injected powerglide kick-down linkage myself...
Thanks Joe
