Default Re: Ford c4 transmission question

An improperly adjusted manual valve (shifter not indexed correctly) can burn up a trans in short order. About the only other thing that would toast a trans as you described would be very low line pressure. Your slow engagement to first is also indicative of low pressure.

I assume that you have an extended fluid pick up with the deep pan?

I think you need a different valve body. I have a performance automatic super streeter C-4 which uses the original valve body that works fine.
I know 2 people who have had the PA reverse manual valve bodies that did the same things you are saying.
