Can an A518/46RH torque converter be used in a 727?

Just curious if the OD/LU converter can be used in a 727.
I have a High Stall 46RH converter with 5.9 magnum weighted flex plate and am wondering if I could swap it out with my 727 weighted tc and neutral plate.

Thank you....Brian

Only if it's a lockup 727 which is pretty rare. Lockup transmissions have a different spline count than non-LU trans and a machined end for a bushing in the converter and the oil passage to the LU clutch in the converter

Ahhh....thank you. That explains a lot.
