As to what actually cured my motors vibration. Well it was a combination of things. First off the crank was out of balanced. The rods and pistons where not balanced. The line bore was off do to the #3 main cap not lining up right. Those are the things the machine shop addressed that he believed...

Update After rebuilding the motor and actually having the rotating assembly balanced. Plus having other issues with the block fixed. That where never addressed that should of been. It's back together running with no vibrations. Needless to say if I need another motor for this car I'm building...

Quick update tore the motor down don't like what I see at all. Took the rotating assembly to the machine shop. Just waiting to hear back. He seams pretty confident it isn't balanced right.

After I took my torque converter bolts out I notice 2 mounting pads had a bigger gap than the other 2. So I matched marked all the pads to holes and it's always the same 2 pads that have the larger gap and same 2 with the smaller gap no mater what hole you try to line it up with.

Installed the new balancer last night. The vibration is still there. I really don't want to pull the motor. But I don't think I really have an option at this point.

Waiting on a new balancer hoping it solves the issue. If not the motor will be coming back out. I'll post an update as soon as I get it installed. Thanks for the help so far.

Found out the crank is out of a 73. The balancer I put on was a stock replacement for a 74. When I go to summit and look up a balancer for a 73 it only shows one and not either of the ones I have for this motor. Think I need to dig more on that.

Yes the converter is neutrally balanced. I believe the block is a 70s block. I don't know a year any thing else is.I know the guy who built the motor said I will need all the external balancing a stock LA calls for.

In need of help. I know there is a tone of threads on here for a vibration in a 360-727 set up. I have read threw a lot of them check a bunch of stuff and am still failing to find the issue. So as for what I have done to the car. I updated the drive train to rebuilt 360 with a rebuilt 727...

So as it turns out that isn't a good thing to do. It shifts awesome now. I hope this mistake helps somebody else out down the road. Thanks AJ/forms and lustle for your help.

Well I tore my valve body out tore it down compared it to another one I had. Knowing it was a good possibility I screwed up well come to find out I put my high pressure relief spring and ball in wrong. Putting it back together now will post results later tonight or tomorrow night. Thanks for all...

Hey every one I'm having trans issues with my 727 I just installed in my 74 dart. It seams to shift just fine under low to moderate throttle any thing over that it flares when shifting. The harder you stand on it the worse it is. At WOT I'm not sure if it will complete a 2-3 **** it hits my rev...

Thanks for your help. Gave them a call had them send me a sample. Just got it the other day matched dead on. Hopfuly this winter I can take care of my issues. Thanks again for your help.
