Authors Abstract
Content
THE Chevrolet automatic transmission, the events leading to the selection of the torque converter type of drive, and the characteristics secured with this drive in combination with a high-output engine and low-ratio axle are described here.
Of special interest is the construction of the converter members from accurately formed steel stampings, which had not previously been done in high production, but which was considered the most practical method for large production.
