19swinger70 master Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 3,922 Richmond, Indiana	Originally Posted by 19swinger70 I recently got a 727 built by CRT. I stopped by the shop and paid and picked it up in person - this was part of the deal.He told me that he wasnt doing builds where he had to ship them- and also people could drop off their cores. Anyway, he had 1 very young employee working in the shop - not sure if the young guy is doing the full builds or not. I hope my new trans works good - it looks like it was done right. I should be testing it here in the next week or two. My previous 727 build from CRT is still going strong in my 340 dart 20 years later. I'm happy to report that the 727 I picked up from CRT in January is functioning and shifting good. (727 with billet front drum, reverse manual valve body and other "race" stuff) I hope you get your 904 back together and rocking and rolling soon, BigDad 1970 340 swinger. sublime 1967 barracuda fastback BB 55 Plymouth Project

They tore it apart ,and well .. its all messed up again, my guy called Cope , guess they have determined the pump pressure is incorrect and its need another re-build and more parts are ordered and maybe it will be working next week ..
