- On this episode we take one final attempt to make the transmission in the 72 C20 shift through all 3 gears. We replace the Governor with a new one from @classictransmissionsolutions
It's been 30 something years since I've messed with a governor, it was in my brother's old Cadillac with a turbo 400. I miraculously remembered the old turbo 350s had governors when one of my customers with a 76 C10 called me with the stuck in 1st gear issue, took my brain a couple minutes to dig through the 80's memory files archives to find the fix, the file was slightly corrupted and no longer contained the location of the governor, your video fixed my broken memory file... Thanks and subscribed.
I've been doing this stuff for 53 years now, it's never too late to learn things all over again. 🤠
I greatly appreciate the comment. I’m no expert. Every day I try to learn something new and get better. It’s fun. And a fun hobby. Thanks for the subscription!!

Thank you for making and sharing this video! I may have to do the same thing to a 1974 Camaro TH350 transmission.

Cool video bro. Glad that part fixed your problem. 👍👍
Thanks bud. Thanks for watching!!
@@HartRockGarage your welcome
Love that truck project!
Thank you for watching
Happy ending. Very cool.
Thanks for the info. I have a th350 out of my 77 Camaro and was setting it up for dirt track racing and was wondering if I needed the governor gear assembly at all. I run short track and manually shift, also most short tracks I just run in first gear all the way around with a 3.95 posi rear end. But I think I'll keep it since having all 3 gears is a plus. lol
Rock on.
PS I eliminated the passing gear BS. 3/8 NPT tap and a 3/8 NPT pipe plug. No need for that in race mode.

How did you get the other part of the governor gear that broke off out of the transmission
I lost the footage but I dug around with a pick. Then later pulled the pan to clean it out. Thank you for watching. Please subscribe
just a suggestion sir.... if you decide to add electric components that will keep your engine alive i would replace the wire harness first before any major update to engine and driveline....
the old wiring is just that.... old.... brittle.... old....
a new harness can be had that include wiring for fans and fuel injection and such very reasonable ...
Ill have to check it out I have a 75 k10
Be sure to get ahold of Classic Transmission Solutions and tell them you watch the HartRock Garage Video. They will find the right parts for you. Thanks for watching!
Did you have to get the broke piece out of the trans ? If so what's the easiest way ?
I got it out with some picks. Thank you for watching. Please subscribe
I just rebuilt mine thinking second gear went out.😢. Wave plate for second gear was snapped in two. But still won't shift. Then looked at the governor......and the gear Is completely worn down and isn't catching the shaft.
Yikes. Sounds like it’s worn out. Thanks for watching! Please subscribe!!
Mine is shifting into 2 but not 3rd and dosnt go into reverse. Could this be a gov issue? I did already replace the modulator.
I’m not sure. That sounds like it would be something more serious. But I really wouldn’t know. Thank you for watching
@HartRockGarage lol thats what I'm fearing. It just started doing it one day with no weird noises or anything just said no. Thanks though
77 k10. 383 and a th350. It’ll shift out sometimes, and sometimes it’ll run first out and won’t shift. I can put it in reverse/park and SOMETIMES it’ll start shifting right at low RPM. Any chance this could be the problem?
It is a possibility. That or vacuum modulator or vacuum issues. I recommend calling a transmission shop and let them know what your issues are. That’s how I figured it out. Just went through the process of elimination. Hey thanks a bunch for watching. Please subscribe if you haven’t already
Was this problem only in drive? Could you manually shift it?
No it only had first gear before the governor replacement. I tried shifting it manually thinking maybe it was a vacuum issue but no luck. So check out classic transmission solutions for any parts and questions you have or need. They are great. Tell them Cody @ HartRock Garage sent you. Thanks for watching and please subscribe!
Will this work on automatic transmission. C10 72 will shift into gears but won’t engage
What do you mean by “will shift into gears but won’t engage”?
@@HartRockGarage I he meant that he can shift the gears but it won't go once its in any gear do you have any suggestions
@@marvinquarterman3201 sounds like it’s out of fluid or the transmission is bad. If you are saying it is in gear but never moves
will the 350 governor work for my th400?
No the TH350 and the TH400 governors are different. However Blake at Classic Transmission solutions has some for the TH400. Get in contact with him, contact information is in this video. Tell him Cody at HartRock Garage sent you. If you have any issues message me via email at HartRockGarage@gmail.com. Thank you for watching and please subscribe if you haven’t already
