Hydramatic needed for a '55, what fits?
There is a non member looking for a '55 trans and I am wondering what would be a direct fit without lots "taffy pulling". It should definitely be a clean core at a minimum. It would get shipped to MI. I know of a '55 but with a stuck engine and the car flat on the ground, removal sounds like absolutely no fun. Got one?
Any help would surely be appreciated.

Only '55 and early '56 Dual-Range HydraMatics would be "direct fits". Late '56 through '60 Dual-Coupling Hydramatics wouldn't be terrible to fit, but there would be some hassle with rear engine mounts, linkage (shifter and throttle pressure), and output shaft/U-joint matchup, and maybe driveshaft length.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
