Originally called: "Lurch", but changed it to "The Toecutter", when a jack collapsed and crushed my buddy's toe. :)

In this case, thats the bracket for the shiftercable that B&M provided with the shifter.

Thanx guys, guess dropping the pan is the next step.

Tried to rotate the transmission shaft while clicking the gear selector. Still 4 clicks....But at least now I know that im missing the P, because the shaft rotates freely on all selected gears. Now I'm only assuming this as the shaft won't rotate when in P right?

Thanx Whiskey, I'm gonna try that today.

Got a strange problem here: When installing a new B&M shifter + cable on my 727 TF, the transmissing only has 4 clicks moving the gear selector, when it suppose to have 5 right? 1-> 2 -> D -> N-> R -> P. Its not a cable or bracket issue, because when I remove the cable completly, and just have...

Looking for a 1972 Fury 3 - 2 Door projectcar. No showcar, No engine/trans needed but it has to be rustfree - a little rust no problem but no swiss cheese - and no major damage. It must have the hide away headlights. Will be my next projectcar. info@seventiesguy.com

Just lower the front :)

I was talking about a specific cam: the Hughes Whiplash cam. Its on their website: Our Whiplash cam is designed for basically stock, low compression engines. This cam will run on pump gas in a 440 with 8.25:1 or less compression and iron heads. If your compression is higher than this you may...

Thank you Has2b for your advice! However, when getting the CR above 8.5, the Hughes cam does require other higher octane race fuel. When Im changing pistons, alot more work and money is involved. And I do not have the budget for that unfortunatly. My heads are 975's btw.

Had some feedback from the machineshop regarding the pistons. They used these: Silv-O-Lite Cast Pistons 1276-030

Thank you Stubs for sharing you knowledge! Good point about the thick gaskets! But isnt there an easy way to measure the CR somehow?

Thanx for pointing that out Dave: On my current radiator, the lower hose is on the pass side. On my 440, the waterpump also has it on the pass side. So I got that covered! :)

Thank you Dave for your extensive answer! I do have a total rebuilt and upgraded 727B with the engine and also have the yoke to make a custom/other driveshaft. Im also aware that I probably need a higher stall TC but the engine has my priority now. The Fury has the big radiator already, I have...

Hi Stubs and thank you for your comment. I'm not 100% sure about the compression ratio but according to the machineshop that sold me the engine, its stock low compression. I did not receive a build sheet with the sale, however, on the invoice there were some numbers behind the items they...
