Dual pulley, single field, rebuildable core OK. Date coded for mid Dec68 build. Single pulley OK.

I know its dated, but do you have any alternators left, specifically the 2875724?

Thx again guys. Trying to keep engine costs down as the Satellite needs some metal work, for example, rebuilding the lower rear window frame and usual qtr panel cancer. Definitely plan to go with dual exhaust. Very happy with the Accurate 2.5" on my RR. Hopefully the bores will...

Thx all, some great ideas! As to the 440-6 RR thing, daughter has requested it look like it did when we bought it (her first car) and doesn't want it to look like mine :):)

Finally getting around to restoring my daughters 70 Sport Satellite with 318/904. Yea, I know a B, but I'm looking for advice on rebuilding the 318. All my experience is with big blocks, I've assembled several so know my way around an engine, just not a SB. The engine is a 68 318 (Sep67...

Thx guys. I replaced the seal. The old seal still had the spring in it. I used a little black permatex between the seal and case. No cracks in the case that I can see. If it still leaks I'll try a new yoke. Any suggestions for where to buy? Here's a pic:

Drip from spot shown below. Rebuilt 727 with new bushing, new yoke seal. Original yoke looks ok, shaft measures about 1.685 vs spec of 1.6875. Slight rear shaft side to side movement. Also, engine w/727 was broken in on test stand, using yoke wired to prevent movement. No leaking observed...

Coil sees 12v at startup, but I know it isn't supposed to see 12v for extended periods. Just didn't know if 30min qualified as extended.

just to be clear: use ballast: yes?

For my rebuilt 440 initial startup I don't intend to use the alternator/volt reg circuit. Stock distributor with points. The control panel for my engine test stand will use an original ignition switch. I plan to use the stock "start" circuit from the ign switch, yellow wire (battery) to...

Kim, I'm using 10 springs. I believe I'm using both springs in the front servo, but will double check. I set the regulator to street. Not an orig 6pak trans. Could you elaborate on the control load servo/restrictor plug? thx Rich

I was hoping you'd weigh in. Thx. I'll use the .106 ring for the front clutch. Will pick up some new clutch plates and soak as you suggest. Not sure about the rear clutch, probably go as is and see if it wanders in neutral.

727 going behind a 440-6 (70RR), mostly stock with alum heads, voodoo 60303, SRP pistons, approx 10:1CR, 3.23 suregrip, 4 pinion planetaries, deep pan, 3.8 kickdown, with transgo TF-2 kit. Rear clutch (4 clutch plates) dry clearance is .030" with .088" ring. Chrysler says .025-.045". Munroe...

I wanted to thank you again for your responses/help. Now the search begins for a case without the groove...and perhaps a tail shaft as well (Mr. Munroe said this problem is often caused by a worn/damaged tail shaft snap ring/bearing/groove).

I did a bit of surfing and discovered the following kit made by TSR (Munroe) here: A-727 Case Repair Bearing Year 1962 up. This bearing will repair cases damaged by the inner overrunning clutch race hitting the inside rear of the case. Includes bearing and instructions. Machining...
