Chevrolet The Corvair 95 Powerglide 2-Speed
The Corvair 95 Powerglide 2-Speed is a 2-speed automatic hydraulic transmission created by Chevrolet and used in Chevrolet cars.
The Corvair 95 transmission is a part of the transaxle—a combined transmission and rear axle assembly mounted on the vehicle underbody just forward of the engine. The input shaft passes through the hollow pinion shaft and mainshaft to drive the transmission. The mainshaft is splined to the pinion shaft to deliver power to the rear axle.
The Powerglide transmission combines a 3-element torque converter and a 2-speed planetary gearset, providing maximum torque multiplication of 4.73 in low gear. Gear rations are 1.82 for low and reverse gears, and 1.00 for high gear. Low (L), drive (D), neutral (N) and reverse (R) operation are selected by a lever mounted on the instrument panel. Type A lubricant is used and is separate from the rear axle lubricant. A transmission oil cooler is mounted on the left wheel-house compartment.
