    1969 RR air grabber

    Hi Dan, Can you furnish a picture of your motor?? This is the FIRST MOPAR I have ever owned and hate to admit that I'm CLUELESS. The ONLY thing I can get out of your writing is the EDELBROCK PERFORMER RPM intake because this is what I have in mine. I don't understand what the 500" RB is or the...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    STILL waiting for the filter extension adapter. The transmission BURPED fluid after being left in FIRST gear, but NOT as much as before when left in park or in neutral. I purchased a DEEP TRANS PAN that the VENDOR claimed NOT to need a filter extension. GUESS what, HE LIED. The pan is ONLY...

    1969 RR air grabber

    My latest research reveals that the 440 air grabber sits 3/4" LOWER than the 383 air cleaner so that would be the one to use. STILL, have NOT had any confirmation that it will work with my HIGH RISE intake. I guess what I now need to know is- ¿ Does ANYONE have a 383CID with a high rise...

    1969 RR air grabber

    Thanks again for the photograph. I located a vendor that sells everything in this picture. I guess my BIGGEST QUESTION is whether I can keep the current INTAKE MANIFOLD and CARBURETOR ???? and if so, who sells the AIR CLEANER for the AIR GRABBER function. I have an "Edelbrock Performer RPM"...

    1969 RR air grabber

    Can someone furnish pictures of the AIR GRABBER............. My '69 RR is a N96 car and I have the hood. I want to eventually reinstall the air grabber and would like to see how it all fits together. I'm sure I will be able to find a vendor who will furnish the air grabber kit when it comes...

    Air graber set up

    Thanks..........I HOPE you are correct. I have a 1972 400CID motor which is actually the same as the 383CID. In the FUTURE, I would LOVE to install the hood grabber set up if it is possible. I'm NOT about to change the current intake and carburetor to do so. Not necessary but just something...

    Air graber set up

    I have an 'air graber' hood that is gutted for the exception of the hood vents. I currently have an Edelbrock high performance RPM intake manifold with a Holley 3310 750 CFM carburetor. I was wondering if the 'air graber' set up could re-installed using this manifold and carburetor. I...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    I purchased the tranny from Summit Racing. It is a "TCI" Street Fighter which I believe that part of the modification is a shift kit. I really DO NOT know what all they do to modify it from a stock A727 but it sure is a LOT of fun to MANUAL SHIFT it. I did NOT have any issues with the DRAIN...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Hi Harold, I can NOT believe it. I put it in 1st gear as you recommended. Started it up this morning and it DID NOT leak at all. Put at least 60 miles on it today and so far so good. I now have it parked in FIRST gear and will start it in a couple of days and see what happens. I should get...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    I had it running today. Getting it ready for the car show. BOY does it drive nice..............purged about 5 1/2 oz. on the cold start but never leaked again the rest of the day. I topped it off for tomorrow's drive. I expect it to purge when I first start it up but sure would be nice if it...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Hi Harold, The converter is 11" and it holds 3 1/2 quarts of fluid. Attached is a picture of the trans. dipstick and the various FLUID levels. The overnight level; when it is HOT in driving condition; and what the level is after being parked for ONE hour after running it hot. LG, Mike

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Hi Harold, Talked to a tranny GURU today and he confirmed your opinion that it is a T/C drain back issue. I just got off the phone with the TCI tech- he also agrees and tells me it is the BLEED BACK VALVE in the pump that is allowing the T/C fluid to drain back into the tranny. It needs to be...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Before I forget again, this transmission is shifted via cable and has a floor "Quick Silver" "B & M" shifter. The 'neutral safety switch' is not used. The guy who did the transmission swap tied into the wire harness to get the dash reverse light to come on and I assume the car will NOT start...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Hi, I just finished my tests. First, before I did anything, I wanted to check the fluid level on the dipstick. It is high and over the TOP loop of the stick. I expected it to be really high......... I started the car in PARK and with the DIPSTICK removed. Exactly 5 oz. of transmission...

    TH727 fluid leak via overflow drain

    Hi Harold, Thanks for the quick response. YES and NO, I purchased the steel dipstick tube that bolts to the bell housing and the dipstick has the FLIP LOCK handle at the top. I assume this is the STOCK steel neck and dipstick. I purchased the "TCI" tranny; 2400 stall T/C; fluid; dipstick and...
