couple of points and a question......

point one is....i bought a roller 727 from jims performance transmisions this spring...to make a long story short..i didnt have good luck with it...it broke...taking it back to him to see what went wrong....but one thing i learned...there is NO et gain with the roller bearings....on consective saturday nites my car et'ed the exact same with the roller in..and the next week with my backup 727 in..exact same mph and et......other guys that i race with were running the same as well...so it was a very good test....i was told to expect from a tenth to a tenth and a half in et..and flat didnt see it..........

my question is....going to a trans brake this year....other than following the installation istructions...what other mods can be done to insure reliability in the 727.......and what is the life expectancy of a 727 in a high 9 sec 3300 pound car...or what should i expect it to be????? with a brake???
