New to the fourms and was wandering what a few codes that I have seen on some signitures mean. I have seen teh following M6, A4, and A3+1. What do they mean and how do I tell which one I have?

 

m6 is 6spd obviously. 3+1 is just a 4 for people that want to make their auto look cooler in their sig. !cags (or !whatever) means youve taken that off/disabled. anyothers post em and im sure someone will reply

 

A3+1, as in Fred's sig, means that he has a TH400 3-speed auto with a Gear Vendor OD unit on it to give him a 4th gear.

Some other common ones are KM (knock module), PHR (panhard rod), LCA (lower control arm), SFCs (subframe connectors), OTVC (over the valve cover spark plug wires), LE2 (heads or cam by Lloyd Elliot), AI (Advanced Induction), LTs (longtube headers).

 

Thank you for pointing that out... I'm not trying to "make (my)auto look cooler".... I'm just trying to indicate its not your basic 4L60 or 4L60E.

 

plus wouldn't the Gear Vendor make it a 6 speed auto. you get OD in every gear right?

 

The way I have it set up is to provide an O/D. I did not install the electronics package that would facilitate "splitting the gears" in 1st and 2nd.

If my signature bothers everyone, I'll delete it

 

didn't think about the electronic part of it thanks now I know. Thought about getting one for my truck.
