Thread: 1950 Chevy Coupe powerglide

Tweet

I have a 1950 chiltons and it does not help. I'm trying to figure out where the transmission lines go...on the trans theres 3 fittings for lines and has a trans cooler which takes 2 lines. Does anyone have any pics or can take pics on where the trans lines go and mount and are ran? This just got dropped off in pieces and getting frustrated figuring out where the lines and which lines are ran...please help. I searched but came up with nothing.

i thought glides back them were air cooled.

I'll give you my very best shot. Everytime in the past that I have started on a new project, I have purchased the original factory Service Manual for that car or truck. It will save you untold time and misery trying to run down information on the car. Faxon Auto Literature has been my vendor of choice for several decades now and I highly recommend them. Here is the factory service manual for your Chevy....

nope.. on a '51-'52 ( '50 should be same ) there cooled by the coolant.. there is a sort of tank that the lower rad hose runs in and out of. coolant flows around the capsul of transmission fluid inside

I called my trans shop Buddy but he did'nt think it used 3 lines,he was thinking it is probally a pressure test port. I did find this sight that has a bunch of exploded veiws.
