Just know there could be possible drawbacks to using Ford Type F in your Chrysler transmission.

Frank Adkins explains in his book, Chrysler Performance Upgrades, that although Type F will cause a Chrysler 727 to shift better, the life span of of the front clutch pack can be dramatically reduced.

Then again in Carl Munroe's book, Torqueflite A-727 Transmission Handbook, "the type of transmission fluid used seems to have a definite effect on clutch life".

Sounds like if you have an all out race car and are not concerned about frequent transmission rebuilds, Type F is the way to go. Otherwise, a good Dexron fluid for a street/strip/show car would be a better choice.





Hey C S ....

Please define FREQUENT REBUILDS ?

In my 62 .... is a trans that I built back in the middle 70's ... it has had maybe 5 diff motors in front of it and maybe has 40k miles on it. The SAME type F fluid in it since day one.

Manual VB, trick drum, cut-down hemi band .... NO trash in the pan EVER.

Do you BELIEVE everything that you read ?
