per my post earlier, I need to find a transmission for my '57 Golden Hawk (discovered last night mine has a Ford "cousin" installed). I'm trying to find the correct A2-7A with the oil-cooler lines, but if that proves difficult, wondering what the next "best-match" is, perhaps lacking only the oil-cooler connections? In the Shop Manual, they show all the different speed-to-shift adjustments for the different transmissions, for different models. But are the components any different? Or just the settings? So if I find a Flight-o-matic from a '57 or '58 Silver Hawk or President, can it have the same settings as recommended for the Golden Hawk setup? It is only lacking the oil-cooler lines??
If that is the case, how critical are the oil-cooling lines, since only the Golden Hawk had them? If I'm not going to be racing her down the highways taking advantage of that supercharger very often, doesn't seem it should matter, but I know very little about automatic transmissions. Thanks guys!
