ok so here's my dilemma... ive rebuilt my 727 twice now (behind the 383 4bbl), and the second go around ive only pu on probably 3000 miles tops on her and she needs to be pulled again ( symptoms: vibrating in all gears, whining at higher rpm with a rattle, top half of second is shot and third is going, oil is black and smells burnt, and it feels gutless out of the hole she normally shreds the tires off but wont even chirp them, and if you try a break torque it just sits there and revs at the stock 1600-1800 Rpm and sits there where it normally overpowers the breaks)
the first time i built it it was just a stock build and these symtoms started to appear and shure enough one day i had to limp it home literally reving 3000 in first for it to shift into third skipping second and got a top speed of 15 mph.... but today thats not the issue yet.
this last go around was also a stock rebuild with a stage two shift kit and is still under warranty, however i would like to know why it would go soo soon?? i drive it a bit hard now and then but im shure you have to do some really stupid stuff to make it go that soon??
also im planning on throwing a stall convertor in the car but would like to keep the 3.23 gears and dont want to go too extreme with it, also wondering if its better to have a stall at the peak hp or peak tq??
as far as tranie coolers? do you need to run the lines throgh the rad or can you bypass it?? and would larger i.d. tubes (to and from rad/tranie) be better for flow and cooling??
thanks for any info guys its a bit of info to digest, but the trannie comes out monday or tuesday when i get time and any info will help, and will get me on my way to ordering the right stuff
