    727 poly engine transmission

    I won't quote all of your posts so you can go back and change all of the mis-information. You said 303, not me. If you meant the Spitfire 301 then that is what you should have said. I made NO reference to your truck. You did refer to the Chrysler and DeSoto, and I quote "The first modern...

    727 poly engine transmission

    If I seem a bit 'uncivil', then it comes from seeing so much bogus info on the web that gets passed as fact...as to the engine info you present, in oem form it simply never happened... The 303 was a Canadian PLYMOUTH engine, same as the 313. No, the post 62 trans is not a direct bolt up, it...

    727 poly engine transmission

    There is so much, in some of the above posts, that is just plain WRONG, that I hardly know where to start. Since this forum is focused on A-bodies and the attendant engines, please don't venture into the wacky world of the EarlyHemi unless you actually know what the hell you are talking...

    trans id

    You need to double check your info. The starter pocket on the 143 bell has been move outboard so it fits the larger diameter wheel. 130 on left....................143 on right...... .

    trans id

    You need to match your bearing retainer to the bell. If you have the large OD retainer then you can use a bell with a smaller hole but you will then need to bore out the bell to match. Also, keep in mind that many/most/all? of the OD bells will be for the 143 tooth flywheel and do not...

    360 and A833 swap?

    1. depends on spline count. count asnd compare 2. use pass car brackets 3. yes, the 360 uses a specific flywheel, but also, the chosen flywheel must match the chosen bell. 130t and 143 tooth wheels are not interchangeable.

    What the hell is going on with shops?

    Where, exactly, does one find a 'delete my post' function? Cold fingers on a keyboard make for double posts and, well, you get the idea. The 'edit' button seems to indicate a 'delete' function, but, alas, not to be found by casual observation. Any help appreciated so I can make this post go-away.

    auto to 4 spd OD swap

    ...yeah, well, so my fingers get ahead of my brain some times...all PASS CAR O/D are short tails....the OP was referring to F bodies ... And, if you are dealing with truck parts, then keep in mind that the 143 tooth wheel was a truck piece and had a larger bell to match. No workie with the 130...

    auto to 4 spd OD swap

    All of the OD units are short tails. If you can, get all of the pieces from a Volare/Aspen, and then buy stock replacement clutch parts as needed. Hydraulic clutch? as in a slave or hyd T/O bearing? The hyd T/O bearings are very expensive. You will need to replace the rear gear. In OD your final...

    Trans issues

    Dakota and Durango are essentially the same vehicle...and very few Durangos have a manual trans. The Dak trans should be the same as the truck, BUT, why not take a couple pics of each an compare them?? Don't worry about one or the other having an electric speedo as they completely interchange. .

    Does anybody use ax-15 or NV500 (??) trannys from dakotas?

    Gear ratios are not 'terrible'...3.83, 2.33, 1.44, 1.00, 0.79 Some of the AX15 shift smooth, probably an individual trans issue. The AX15 was used with the 5.2 so...
