I drilled on the conservative side for the TF-2, street specs.
Good plan---I'll use it.
I got the whole 727 apart today. I'm using a 727 from 69 Chgr as donor. Following pic shows 2 output shafts, the "gold" one from the Chgr, the other is from the 727 I'm rebuilding. Is there any significance to the "gold" tint?
Hum... That's a new one on me. Never seen a gold one before and I've torn apart so many I can't remember. The only diff. in output shafts (of the car variety) is 76 and up use a different spline angle where the planetaries slip on so you can't mix 76 and up parts with 75 and back parts.
I dry packed the front clutch and measured the clearance at about .45 with a .74 snap ring. My FSM says the spec is .25 to .45 but ideally should be closer to the lower number. A .88 snap ring should get me to about .30. Is this worth doing or should I just leave it?
Thx again for your help.
