Can anyone tell me if i can put a 3 pin reverse / neutral safety switch into my 1965 727 push button transmission?

Is there any one who has great knowledge of adjusting the push button cable. I can only get 4 gears. This is a new rebuild and new cable. The pan is off so i can see it move from underneath. I dont think its an adjustment issue. i think i need to do slight modification. ..................

i dont need to know how to measurer a drive shaft. I need to know if any one knows the length of a 65 Belvedere drive shaft. I have changed out my old 904 cast iron with trunion and put a big block 727 in my 62 Fury. Joe Suchy told me i need a driveshaft out of a 65 Belvedere or Satellite. i...

I have my 383 fresh from the machine shop new rings and bearing. Mild Lunati roller cam, new aluminum heads. Im running a Holley Sniper and Holley Hyper spark. Here is my question. My co builder is insistent that we do the initial start up with a carburetor and the original distributor. My...

I put a 1965 727 transmission into my 62 Fury convertible. Would i just need a standard length drive shaft for a 65 or would that end up being a special size?

i have a 62 Fury with a 383. I put a set of Edelbrock aluminum heads on with studs. I have some new headers with jet hot coating on them and as i was putting on the headers i realized the studs are in the way. Do i grind an 1/8 off the top of the thread or notch the bottom of the header even...

I want to run a serpentine setup on my 383 but i dont want to break the bank. March is to much. I have been looking at the CVF set up as well , which is the picture i am attaching, but i really dont need to spend the extra money for the bling. Any one running a functional set up that has AC and...

I have a 383 that was in the 62 Fury. It has the motor mount adapters for the 62 K frame. It worked at one time before for my uncle. But now that i put the engine in it is to far forward. and the water pump wont fit. If i move the top mounts to the front of the block the oil pump housing will...

I am replacing my 1962 trans with a 65 push button slip yoke 727. Can anyone confirm that the filler tube has a flange that bolts down to hold the filler tube in. Also anyone have an extra?

I have a 383 that my uncle changed the pistons on in the early 80s. They identify as 30 over but i am trying to find out what my compression ratio is. When i google the numbers all that come up are some Wiseco motorcycle pistons. They are marked 2309PA on the top and on the inside 29o-99 its...

Need a 1965 727 transmission valve body. Anyone have one for a reasonable price?

I am replacing my tapered axles but have a few probably simple questions. 1. I am reading at this point i can use my dent puller and yank theses out. Yes? 2. My new set up came with new studs for the rear end housing. Whats the best way to remove the old ones. Just beat them out or do i need...

I have a 62 fury its has an 8 3/4 rear end its a 741. It has not been on the road in quite a few years. I was surprised when i pulled off the drums to find the studs are not on the axle but are attached to the drum. I have looked on the internet but have not been able to find any thing written...

This is not a high tech engine question. What color did the engines come from the factory in 1962? Were they all the same or did it change by engine size? Or model i have a Fury, Mine is currently dark blue almost like a ford blue. doesn't seem right to me.

My 62 fury has a 61 383 with cast iron transmission. I picked up a 65 727 to upgrade the trans however now i have a problem. I knew there would be an issue bolting it up but im rebuilding the engine anyhow and now its time to deal with it. The 61 383 has a weird crankshaft its shorter coming out...

I now have my fathers 62 fury convertible. It came with a 318 however in 65 he decided to put a 1961 383 in it. As most of you know the 383 has a crank that bolts up directly to the torque converter with a short crankshaft. I am getting closer to getting the engine back together and i understand...

I pulled my engine today and looked up the casting numbers. It came back as a 1964 361 or 383 apparently they used the same block. My uncle claims it to be a 383 but my dad remembers it being a 361. Is there an easy way to figure out which it is?
