Ok I feel pretty stupid here. I have a 1966 belvedere I am building. I removed the original non-poly 318 and 727. I built a 440 for it and bought a '78 Dodge 2wd pick up for cheap and it had many speed parts on it I am using. One of the parts that I am trying to use is the 727 that was in it. It was built by a local guy who puts together some really nice transmissions.
Problem: I cannot get any of my drivelines to work, none of the splines seem to match up. The outer diameter seem correct as the yolk slides in past the seal but as soon as the splines hit….nothing meshes. The original driveline along with one out of a 1967 big block 727 satellite won't work. I also have one out of my 1969 Roadrunner that I tried and the same thing happens. Is there something I am missing here as I was under the assumption that all 727 output shafts were the same. This trans came out of a 2wd standard cab short bed truck so I thought it was the same. Only difference I saw was that the output shaft stuck out farther out of the tail housing of the transmission.
Anyhows, any clarification on this would be greatly appreciated.
