     Does this happen only in an aggressive turning maneuver or is it even in a gentle turn giving trouble?

 

     There is almost no change in engine mount load with any maneuver except that which is imposed by throttle position and engine torque, such as acceleration and transmission shifting.  The likelihood of the engine being "slung" out of place in a turn is not very great.  If it happens in gentle turns as well as in aggressive ones you might suspect a wire is loose, or maybe even intermittently shorted.  If it's only a problem in aggressive maneuvers I'd still suspect carburetion issue.

Hi All,

 

I suspect that after I had my 413 and Torqueflite rebuilt, the person that reinstalled the transmission may not have torqued the mount bolt sufficiently.

 

When the 300 was recently on the lift, the spring between the transmission mount and the transmission seemed to be extended a few inches.  When the mechanic lifted the end of the transmission, there seemed to be almost 3+ inches of vertical movement.  This seemed excessive to me.

 

On a side note, I am still having a problem with stalling as I slow down and take a sharp right turn.  What I think may be happening is the engine/transmission may be moving/tilting in such a way to affect the throttle linkage position?  Tell me I am crazy, but that’s what I need to investigate.

 

What is the spec to tighten the transmission mount bolt?  Once I do that properly, I will know more.  I checked the shop manual, but I could not find it.  Thanks for all ideas.

 

300ly,

Mark Lindahl

’63 300 Conv. w/413
