Nice. When you do get a chance, that 355 gear set is perfect for fuel mileage and acceleration. I am working on a 73 Duster. 318 3-speed 8.25. Soon to be a 340 4-gear. It was a 340 4 speed originally.

Thanks for the reply. Almost done my swap from 3.21s to 3.93s should wake it up some.

Anybody happen to know what the gear oil capacity is off hand for an 8.25. I have the cover off and the differential on axle stands. It would be easier to fill it and seal it back up in this manner. Thanks

Bottoming out on what specifically?..

Picked up this rear end in a package deal for my 73 Duster. I pulled the cover to inspect it. It looks tidy, and by counting the rotation it appears to be a 3.91:1 gear set. Can anyone tell by looking what make of suregrip this might be? Thanks

S I would not drill anything like that to fit.. Thats me personally. I would compare it to the one that fits. Woodie

Been there done that... Flip it over.

Sorted out the shifting issue. Turns out there was a port-plug in the case preventing the govenor to feed the valvebody.

Thanks Fishy for your input, another member also took time to help me out with the instructions. I have a copy now and hopefuly i can resolve this issue. Thanks again guys for your help. Dave.

the long and short of it is, i took a 727 manual shift to a local rebuilder and had it rebuilt. I asked for him to swap the valve body for and automatic one, only to find out after i installed it that it will not up-shift.. I called and explaind to the owner my comcerns.. He spoke to his builder...

thank you for your insight.

Recently removed a manual valve body from a 727 to go back to a fully automatic shifting trans. I am looking for the instructions for the "Manual valvebody" installation, i think there might be a port plug in the case.. I want to confirm i have not missed anything. Any help would be greatly...

LQQK'n good!

Cheapest best and easiest option in my opinion.. Tug the 3.55:1 pumpkin and replace it with tire frying 4.10:1 or 3.9:1s I bet you smoke'em for 2 city blocks

yes i do:)

Sounds like the band is releasing a split second before the 3rd gear is applied. Easy fix.

it may be a band adjustment.. Does it do it as it 2-3 shifts? I

Just installed a fresh built 727 automatic in the Scamp. Convertor flashes at 2800 but no 1-2 up shift. I went ahead and disconected the TV from the carb and tried again.. Still no upshift. any thoughts? Was thinking the govoner may sticking or installed incorrectly??

Thats why i asked the question. Thanks for the input guys... Off to buy a new VB. Lol

I want remove the manual valve body and have the trans shift automatically. What needs to be done to achive this without replacing the valvebody for another one. .

The insight is appreciated. I had a torn seal on the left axle, the axle is grooved pretty good.

" Good point. now I have been schooled. That's a scary thought. I would prefer a wet set of Brake shoes any day.

Great info! I just learned me something new! Thanks RRR!

I'd like to hear if any one has had failure with the Greens... I could not seem to find any negative feedback..?

A stock rebuild kit is all I can see you requiring, If any upgrades.. I like the .999 Planetary gears, they get you out of the "Hole" quickly. Also the Trans-Go shift kit is nice, it will prolong the life of the transmission due to minimalizing slippage during the *****. I also would replace...

Yahtzee!

if there is any wear on the axles where the "lip seal" rides its going to leak. I took a good look at mine and decided on the "Greens" One can always drift the seal in short in the axle tube to compensate, but for the average Joe... The "Greens" are simple install.

I am in the process of replacing mine as well. After some research, I am convinced the "Green Bearings" are the way to go. No internal seals to worry about and no preload adjustment. Simple easy and affordable. I ordered mine from Mancini $85.00 bucks plus the cost to have them pressed on to...

hahaha oops! Having a brain dead day today chasing the kiddies around the house.

Was there a member here who was putting together kits to sell? If so I am looking to purchase the correct linkage. Any help would be great. Thanks
