    No third gear

    Pulling the transmission will not happen until I am ready to upgrade. I readjusted the shifter linckage and the kick down linckage. I now have full throttle and it has a lot more power down low. I have all three gears. I was two quarts low so it is now running better. Each time I go through...

    No third gear

    I pulled the valve body yesterday. Nothing out of the ordinary in the pan. I cleaned the valve body and air tested the transmission. It took a couple of hits of air to get one of the clutches to actuate. I assume it was stuck from sitting. I got it all back together and it is over reving...

    I did drive to work this morning.

    No third gear

    Every gear works but 3rd. Stock transmission with stock valve body and stock style converter. I am going to pull the valve body in the morning.

    No third gear

    I have 2.94 gears so it isn't rapped tight. The torque converter and transmission where drained before I put it back in the car a month or so ago. The rattle is only under a heavy load at slower speeds.

    No third gear

    I have a 727 with l as than 10k miles on it. I took my car down for winter upgrades and four years later she is back up and running. The motor is rebuilt and running great but I don't have third anymore. I have adjusted the linckage and it shifts into park, reverse and neutral perfectly. To...

    Rear Axle Green Bearing Install Questions

    The next question is how does it come a part. Guess I will take the axles out again this weekend and pull the center section.

    Rear Axle Green Bearing Install Questions

    An open diff looks to be the same. My assumption is that the rear end must be taken apart to remove the thrust block to go with the green bearings. Or would I happen to be lucky and can just run the green bearings without removing the thrust block?

    Rear Axle Green Bearing Install Questions

    I would replace your seals. You can rent a slide hammer from an auto parts store with the correct 3 or 4 finger removal tool. Then install using a seal installation tool also available from your auto parts store. I had my housing out and in the back of my truck. I handed the counter guy my...

    OD for BB which do you use?

    Check out the adapters for a 46RH tranny. It is a small block tranny but is designed off of a 727 with a 4th gear. They can be built to hold plenty of power. If I stay sisy stick I will be going for the 46rh.

    VooDoo 60302

    I am putting one in my stock bottom end but freshened up 440 with Edelbrock heads, intake and 750 Holly.

    Edelbrock Perf RPM heads with stock valve train

    I assume that the stock push rods will not withstand the spring pressures also. (that is if they happened to be the correct length)

    The glass is always full, it may not be full of a liquid but it is full of something.

    Loud and scary noises coming from my 440...

    I had my 727 rebuilt here in Oklahoma for 550. I dropped it off one day and got it back 3 or 4 days later with a 1 year warranty if I brought it back in once it was in the car and running. They wanted to check and insure the kickdown was adjusted correctly for the warranty.

    A833 4-Spd Swap for 5 or 6 Speed? B Body

    Here in Oklahoma there is Blumenthals. They specialise in semi's but do have a great reputation. You may expand your search and look at heavy truck repair shops. You could always do it yourself. The more I take apart (and get back together) the more I realise this stuff is not rocket science...

    Reverse servo arm

    Thank you gentlemen. It will be a week or two before I get to work on it. Since this is my daily driver I will just have to plan my parking. I have been dealing with it for two weeks so another week or two is no big deal.

    Reverse servo arm

    Will I be able to get the reverse strut rod in at the same time?
  19. Jim Bob The Dancing Bear

    Reverse servo arm

    On a 727 (1978 small block in a power wagon) can the reverse servo arm be taken out and put in without taking the transmission completely apart? The center part that pushes on the low reverse strut rod broke and needs replaced along with the rod reinstalled. Thank you.

    440 noise in front of motor

    Is there something hitting the timing cover? Could it be a pulley touching somewhere?
