Hi Guys! I know there are some really knowledgeable tranny guys out
there, so I was hoping someone could tell me where I can find some
comprehensive reading on transmissions (esp. Mopars). Books, texts, and
manuals would be fine too.

The Factory Service manuals are the best, section 21 in all of them.

Automatic Transmission Service Group (ATSG) manuals are very good, and can
be found almost anywhere trans stuff is sold, $25 per manual, one manual per
trans.

Chiltons also does a set, mostly in groups of transmissions. One book has
several trans from different makers.

HP Books and SA Design are another good source, lok them up on the net and
you'll find they list their entire lineup of good books.

One book I've found is an excellent resource is "Auto Math Handbook", by
John Lawlor, HPBooks, 1020. It has all the relevant formuli, as well as
about ten pages of conversion factors for almost any unit of measure you
could imagine.

Thanks very much Max! I just spent about an hour checking some of this
content online. I'll be going to the local transmission place Tuesday.
