Hello Everyone!

I have been working on my 62 Dart for a while (very slow progress) and right now the metal work is being done. I have the 225 Slant Six and the A727 trans pulled out (I believe both are original). The trans has never been touched and the engine was rebuilt in '03 by me and then parked after 5k miles.

I am looking to do an overhaul or seal replacement on both and I was looking for suggestions on kits to use or which websites to order from. I think the Trans will need an overhaul and the engine will just need seals.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Not familiar with the slant 6 engines, but what seals you want to replace..as it has been overhauled before.
Does it leak?
Anyhow i would get a block seal kit from Felpro from Summit racing or so, also for the transmission you will find a seal kit there.
I think a 727 tranny behind a slant 6 engine would not require a full rebuild with clutches and bands.
I would open it up first and check everything as you might find nothing wrong with it.
A good clean up of all parts might do the trick, rebuild it with a new filter screen and all gaskets and seals.
