ok, i'll keep you posted on how it goes this season. 1200hp shouldn't be a problem for a 727, that's not a terrible large amount for one to handle. i built my own two years ago, i don't have alot of full pases on it but plenty of out of the gate shots. some of the extra parts in mine are an aluminum drum with 6 disc in it and a hemi band. i did have cope change out the aluminum front planet to a steel body on my straight cut gears because i ripped out the splines. manual vb, deep pan, screen filter and most all the other little tricks are done to it. my two convertors i sent to jw and had the sprags changed to his mechanical diode.
