727 dry start

I’m not going to argue, but you are wrong on one thing.

You don’t shut off an engine you are breaking in the camshaft on.

yes when engine starts raise RPM to 2000 and then begin pouring in more trans fluid immediately. Set timing after the trans is full.

Would be best to have a helper in the car checking gauges and holding the RPM up while the other person is filling the ATF first then so petting timing. All the while looking for fluid leaks.
