I found an old guy that runs a hole in the wall tranny shop and I asked him about TCI trannies because I was looking at getting a TCI Sizzler. He told me that he has had one apart and all they did was take a stock tranny and threw a kit in and took out the accuator (spelling?) spring.
I don't know much about auto trannies but this guy took me around his shop and sat me down for about 40 mins and showed me different things about 727's I learned alot of stuff about 727's in that 40 mins and all I did was walk in and ask about TCI trannies.
So instead of spending the money on a brand new and shiny tranny Im ganna take a old 727 in my garage and goto this old guys shop and have it rebuilt by a pro save 200 bucks and get an education at the same time.

You know this is basically what the post on another board said was done to his TCI tranny. It barely made it out of warranty. When it died they tore it apart and found none of the clearances were properly set and basically the shift improvements were just the removal of the accumulator spring.

Although to give them some credit since I have never seen any of there work one other poster that races alot swears he has run a couple of them over the years and never had any problems.
