Which BB 727 is better?
I have the choice between two different 727's. I will be buying one for my 383 Scamp project. Both are $150 obo and both owners say they were running when pulled. Ironically, both are from guys who demo derbied but both said neither was used. They were just pulled from the cars that were used (said they use 318 or 360 for derbies).
1. 1968 727 out of an Imperial
2. 1975 727 out of a 440 Newport.
Any benefit one has over the other? I don't care about the numbers/dates. Also, they both have fluid, and say it's clean, and both were stored in doors. Anything I should check for? Of course, I would be having either one rebuilt and checked out, but I don't want to start with a burned up trans or cracked case.
Please give your feedback, thanks fellas!
