Slant to V8 transmission adapter

I have a adapter like this. Mine came out of a 68 d100 slant 6 727

I have always heard they used the 727 behind /6's but in my 32 yrs. of dealing with Mopars I have never saw an actual 727 with a /6 bolt pattern. By you having a regular D100 truck with a /6 and 727 that used the adapter it makes me wonder if there was never really a 727 that directly bolted to the /6... Just a thought :scratch:
