Couple of questions on 360 torque converters....

are there any visual differences between a lockup and non-lockup converter?

can you use a lockup converter out of a 518 in a 727?

Different number of splines on them...

plus the lock up transmission has a different input shaft..

If the converter has a drain plug it's definitely not a lockup.
