Orifice in front clutch passage 727
« on: July 23, 2015 - 09:14:31 AM »
I'm putting together a hp 727 transmission... billet front drum, 5 (standard thickness) clutch pack set up and 15 return springs...  It will have a 4.2 lever and early style billet front servo.  The VB I'm using is a full manual, forward pattern turbo-action VB. 

I found a restrictor plug in the case fluid hole that applies the front clutch pack.  My understanding is that this is used on trans-go TF2 kits to prevent binding on the 2-3 shift.  Turbo-action told me there should be no restriction here for the VB I'll be using.

Any tips on removing this?   Should I just drill it out?  I have the case cleaned and completely dissassembled

If its pressed in you might be able to use a slide hammer with a sheet metal screw tip  :dunno:

It is pressed in. Good thinking I'll try that.
