RE: {Chrysler 300} 1963 / 1964 Torqueflite Transmissions

300J TorqueFlites were indeed heavy duty and had numerous internal differences from standard TorqueFlites including an extra high speed governor (shift points as high as 5600 rpm). See George’s article for insight into the letter car transmissions: Letter Car Transmissions (chrysler300club.com)

I have been led to believe that the 1964 console-shifted Torqueflites were heavy duty—perhaps including an additional clutch pack and calibrated for higher shift points and even harder/firmer shifts. Any of this true? If so, were the 300J Torqueflites similarly made H.D., either by components and/or calibration???

Yes, Dave you are correct, the floor shift has a special shift valve in valve body , kind of incorporating a double neutral. Rick

To tag onto that Charlie, it may be worth noting if there is a transmission (not just a linkage) difference between the push button and the console shift 727s...

Are the 1963 / 1964 Torqueflites interchangeable?
