Re: 65 727 Rebuild Tips/Tricks

[Joseph Lemire <jlemire426@xxxxxxxxx>]

tighten up the clearances, ditch the accumulator, use a 4.2 shift levers, Alto clutches, a good valve body ( I prefer Turbo Action, others have their own opinions) or just a good shift kit. I like solid bands but then again................every opinion is different.

Carl Munroe wrote a very good book, I think it is called A-727 handbook, it is on Amazon. It is very easy to read and follow and these are easy transmissions to build.

A couple of my tips are to check all appropriate clearances when dis-assembling the trans and stay away from anything TCI sells.

Good Luck,

Joey
