Fresh 727 Street Strip Trans S.B. Wont Drive

An interesting read. All the years selling parts to transmission shops throughout the country, I was always told the transmission was a 727 and the year of it, thats all that was ever needed to supply the correct parts. Never had any one ask specifically for IH parts. As far as the valve body is concerned, changes would be mainly linkage and internal springing/valving.

One nice thing about 727's is there weren't a lot of versions so it made parts interchange easy. I bet you right on the VB. I caught where he mentioned the IH valve body didn't have part throttle kickdown until 77 or 78. Chrysler had it in 71 if I remember right. Funny they didn't add it on the IH transmissions sooner. Not that part throttle kickdown makes much difference. Just thought it was odd there was so much time before IH used it.
