200ci I put a 200CID engine in my '73 Mercury Marquis

[DON]

I am just a little gun shy on tranny’s right now, a c6 on my other mustang just had to be rebuilt . I think it overheated going down I95, was clipping along pretty good, looked in my rear mirror and it looked like someone did a nascar burn out- white smoke everywhere. After inspection I drove the rest of the way home at a reduced throttle . Never was right after that. Didn’t have a temp gauge, shouldn’t need it with a c6! I do now

“...unfiltered air bleed hole..."
that’s me skratchin my head.

“...the tranny should be O.K. Thoughts?..."
a C-4? I’d think it’d B alright. New fluid’n filter (try’n spin/suck oil
out of the converter...? If it blows there is PLENTY support inc kits, heavier bands,
clutches, throttle body, if Bubs were here he say "add the transgo shift kit", etc. Least parasitic
of the autos, used everywhere, good (oe) to 500 HP (can B prepped to 700 HP) not bad cept for no
OD which I like auto/manny any vehicle in modern traffic.

Holy heck! Gorgeous car & beautiful installation but that 200 is sure earning its oats! I dig it!
