Hey how cool would it be to install a 727 torque flite transmission on an automatic dakota. I know they are only 3 speeds but these things are really powerful. I probably would never try this but it would be a cool idea what do you guys think?

It's already been done. I know at least two guys that have the 727 with a full manual valve body with the reverse shift pattern. Pretty much a race-only option, but it works. No more missing 3rd gear on the race track!

CW you can't compare a 727 to a A518 or a 46re. If they were the same why is the rams #1 problem is blowing trannys (not talking them down own 2) but a 727 is bullet proof one of the best trannys ever made by mopar or anyone else.

That may be but if you ever had one apart then you would see that it is the same as the 727 up front. Yes I have had a few apart and have seen hundreds apart. BTW the first clutches to usualy to go are the O/D units and things go south from there.
