The place in Canada(TCS?) offers one ... and I think that it is about the same $$$ as the alum one.
dunno bout Mancinis but TCIs reputation for 727s is junksooooo....
i have a 400 with a .509 cam, edelbrock torker intake, will have 3.91s and a 3000-ish stall converter soon.....i don't know what EXACTLY the tranny is...whether old stocker, rebuilt, or what.....
guess that's bad?????
also, how good are the TCI or Mancini trannies???
i was kinda looking at the tci competition ($850) and puting a manual/auto valve body in it....
while the Race version does not.
I had a fErd a couple years ago, that was all Mopar running gear, including the front suspension (a '56 HT). The BB 383, had a 727 Auto, with "B&M" components, I was told.
The reverse valve body worked well. If I kept the trans. in 1st gear, accelerated a little, the trans. would "glide" when I took my foot off the accelerator (the only way I can describe it) as if I'd put the transmission in neutral, but, if I used the throttle a little, to bring it up to speed (what would be the equivalent to the road speed) the trans would engage normally. Was this the reverse valve body, or something else in the transmission.
The reason I'm asking, I'm building a 392 Hemi Dart, and have several options for transmissions. I really liked the feature in that combination described above, and if I could duplicate it with this car, I think the small block 727 would be my choice. I'm not a transmission guy at all, never had an automatic apart, but I guess there's a first time for everything.
Please enlighten me..! :argue:

No problem, Scott!I just had a 904 built for racing with parts advise from Chris Andrews.Changed front drum,red racing belts,lower 1st gear etc...also ordered a 4500 stall from Coan.Yet to be tested.
Thanks for advise Chris!:toothy10:
P.S Blanket or shield?????Which one is better?Thanks.
You shouldn't have any problems with that shift kit as long as it's installed correctly. Even though your shift kit automatic valve body applies the L/R band in first, caution should STILL be used while you are in first gear because there is a chance you can damage the sprag.DadGum_Teen said:I just ordered a B&M TransPak kit for my 727. I then started to wonder if this could interfere with the L/R band and cause it stop working. It is the stock forward valve body, should I have any problems with it? Thanks for any replies :cool:
