How do tell the difference between a 904 and a 999, from
the outside. I found an trans #'s chart but it does not have
the 999 on it.

Cars at a yard may have had a tranny change and google did
not help with identification.

Thanks Danny
 
I have not picked out one yet. I'm going tranny hunting at the
yard's and not sure that I'd see a 727. I thought that a 999 would
be the next best thing.

The main hunt is for a early 360 block, but while I'm there I'll check
transmissions at the same time.

Thanks Danny
 
Small block 727's are more plentiful than people think. Look in the 70's Dodge pickups, they almost always have 727's in them. Some will have a bolt on companion flange(club cab & crew cab) but most will be a slip yoke style (standard cab). Also check the same vintage Dodge vans. Everyone of my Dodge pickups and vans (even my '88 van) has a small block 727.
 
Did the 727 ever have a lock up tranny or would any year
be ok?

thanks danny
 
I have read that that there is a 727 lock up but have never seen one. An easy way to tell a lock up tranny from a non lock up tranny is the lock up tranny will have a hollow input shaft and a non lock up trans will have a solid input shaft. My '88 van is not a lock up.
 
This is the hard part. The tranmissions are in the cars. I
guess I could take the #'s chart with me for the 727 and
the 904. I like the 999 the best for my purpose though.

I guess a 88 or lower van or truck would be the best bet.
How could you beat a 727.
