This valve body will give excellent results when properly installed, but care must be taken to read
these instructions very carefully. This valve body can be installed much easier if transmission is
cool. A new transmission filter is recommended, #17013 Filter, but not necessary.
Special Characteristics about your Cheetah Valve Body:
1. Requires Kickdown Linkage to carburetor!
2. Manual Low - can be obtained at any speed, CAUTION!
2. Second to third shift will be vastly improved.
3. There is no line pressure reading at center check point in case. If
4. pressure reading is desired, check on front servo in high gear (105 lbs.)
STEP #1: If vehicle is on the ground, secure so it will not roll. (Preferably, vehicle should
have all four wheels off the ground.) Place vehicle shift selector in park range.
Remove throttle pressure linkage and gear selector linkage located on the
driver’s side of the vehicle. Disconnect only at the shaft coming out of the trans-
mission case. You will note the two linkage levers on the shaft are fastened by a
bolt in each case. Loosen these bolts but do not remove bolts completely. After
loosening bolts, carefully pry levers upward with a screwdriver.
STEP #2: Remove all pan bolts but two on one end. This way you will be able to drain the
transmission without getting soaked with oil. These two bolts can be gradually
loosened off after most of the oil has been drained.
STEP #3: Carefully remove the ten 7/16” bolts which hold the valve body in place, Fig. #1.
Slowly pull valve body out of transmission, noting the hole that the long swinging rod
came from, Fig. #2. It may be necessary to turn drive shaft to release long swinging
rod. The rod controls your car’s park function. Most Torqueflites will have a large
spring between the accumulator piston and the valve body, Fig. #3. This spring
should be removed. Note: Some Torqueflites may have a spring under the
piston and it should also be removed. They will no longer be used.
