Where it located? I'm going to use a th400 from a diesel for a 250 I6 so I need to make some changes. Any other info on this would be great as well.
 
Round *sheetmetal* cover on the drivers side rear of the trans. Doesn't use a snap ring, it's either just press fit, or a metal clip over the top. You can pry the cover off with a screwdriver.
 
OK, where would I find a replacment governer to change from diesel to gas? I've been looking but have not found anything other than a rebiuld kit.
 
Someone at some point made a governor kit, so you could tailor shifts. I don't even know if it was for the Th400 or not, but there wouldn't be a more likely candidate.

I vaguely recall something online (buick GN site?) about how to do it yourself, it's really not that complex, but you've got weights and springs you are dealing with. I would assume the diesel has light weights, which cause it to shift sooner.
