Power - Trans - shaft and rear..??
« on: August 03, 2007 - 05:11:09 AM »

I got a 904 trans after my 340cui, and small driveshaft joins.  If I swap the trans to a 727..???

Will the shaft be to long..???
Will the yoke fit, - trans, and small join..???

Problem is, NO TIRE SMOKE - I got a moth** Fu**** BIG -low stall converter, and aint sure the 904 will stand up to a hi-perf. 340 if I spend money on a high stall converter ...???

The driveshaft will have to be shortened around 4 inches,dust cover on the bellhousing is different,filler tube is different and if you get a 727 yoke that uses the small joint you can use the 904 driveshaft. 904 stall converter......hum.......904's are more likely to crack their small converter hub so I would go up to the 727 and be done with it. :cheers:

No ,you still have to shorten it, but you know that the other end will fit your rear end since it is the one you were already using.
