I found out that my other 440 had a Milodon 30761 pan, so I installed that one instead. Problems solved.

How deep is that pan, and do you have internal pickup? Do you have a part number for it? I will have to modify or replace the old Moroso-pan. Centerlink hits the pan at full turn, and the pan hangs very low. Just rebuilt and installed this engine...I have two 440's for my RR and the other one...

Wish i had this version of the Moroso pan. My pan is an old version, without the notch. I just installed the other 440 for my 1970 RR, and learned that center link is hitting pan at full turn. Will have to modify the pan or get a new one.

Unlike many modern automatics, TF-727 can live well on a variety of ATF fluids. But fully synthetic will withstand heat better than mineral based fluid. I use ATF+4 compatible fluid in my Durango with 45RFE-transmission, and semi synthetic ATF in my road runner with 727. You can mix different...

I have seen worse "scratches" on cam bearings, that didn't cause any issues.

I also just rebuilt my first trans(727)...and it worked (!) when re-attached to the 440. The Chrysler engineers did a great job when designing the Torqueflite. I upgraded mine a little with Alto Red Eagle clutches, Cope auto valve-body and billet rear servo. In hindsight maybe I should have...

Funny to read about your Mopar “maintenance nightmare” and “not great design from a maintenance point of view” … I’ve had different car brands over the years, both old and modern, American and European. I do the wrenching myself. One year ago, I bought my first Mopar (1970 B-body) and have...

I have this cam in my 440... Trick Flow® Track Max® Hydraulic Roller Camshafts for Big Block Mopar TFS-61602003

Do you mind elaborate that?

Yes!
