1000hp 727 full manual build

If you talked with Chris Andrews, he will steer you in the right direction. No doubt it will handle that much power. Your wallet is going to be hurting.


I just did 3 727s that are all built for very high HP. Two are going in 3400lb roadrunners with over 900hp and one is going in my own race car that will be pushing 900HP.

I posted in the racer forum the parts list on the two 727s that are in 3400lb roadrunners. Stay away from aluminum drums though. Definitely billet steel over aluminum.

Thank you, I must learn to search better instead of duplicating content here.
Yes I was mentioning Chris Andrews and yes my wallet will be smashed by this but its not like I have a choice.
I wanted to do this gradually but I realized it makes no sense at all.

This is why I decided to build my spare trans into something that can handle 600hp engine and sell off.
I lucked out on my spare because after opening it up it turned out that only front band tab fell of the band. Other than that its practically ready to go.
I will upgrade it with deep front drum, deep aluminium pan, reverse manual valve body, 4 pinion aluminim front and rear planetary, rigid front band, new clutches, narrow notch belville spring, 374 forward clucth piston, set clearances, put all new seals and let it go hopefully getting half of what the parts will cost me for my unit. Bolt in sprag is already there also. Should be a nice unit for someone.
Now will need to check if these sonnax servos that this unit has leak as Chris warned me about it. Thats the plan at least.
