I'm looking for a big block 727 trans and converter for my road runner. Stock or upgraded, rebuildable core or ready to go. Thanks.

i have one out of a 1968 Dodge 383 2barrel carb, also have all internal parts to make it a heavy duty trans. Also have stock converter. Valve body is missing shift detent ball and spring. Where are you located?

I'm in Southern California, by palm springs.

I am in Indiana, so it would be costly to ship.

Are you looking for an original 68' Roadrunner trans, or any BB 727?

 

[jm8881]

Any bb 727 that will fit with the factory driveshaft. I'm not worried about it being original. Just that it's a bb trans with the 18" tailshaft and slip yolk.

Yeah, shipping would probably destroy any deal we could make.

Dang, too bad you don't live near Utah. I have one you can have, I'm moving and just need it out of the garage.

Quick search on craigslist showed 3 in the Riverside area ...

I've looked all over craigslist in my area. Many don't list that it's a bb or sb trans, others claim it's rebuilt recently but is covered in oil/dirt, others just look like they've been just painted black. And the one that I thought would be ok wouldn't respond to me in any way.

I have a 727 trans from a 1973 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus. Car came with a 400 2 bbl from factory. I do not know the status of the working condition as I bought the whole car as a parts car. Trans./t convereter is still hanging in the car with the motor out but it is still hooked up with the drive shaft and I was able to select the gears with the floor shifter when I transported it on a car trailer.

I am located in Las Vegas if you ever make the trip like most do from S. Cal.

Thanks, Bryan

I have a deal pending right now, I'll know for sure at the end of the day sunday.

I would recommend looking for a 440 Transmission, as they are more heavy duty then the 383 2 BBLmodels.
