727 accumulator blocker rod - yea or nay for street car

Currently building a 727 for 99% street use ('72 Road Runner, 451 low-deck stroker, 550hp).
Trans will have:
- Typical clutch upgrades
- Minor servo upgrades
- Typical valve body upgrades (TransGo TF-2 kit)
- 2500 stall converter
I'm good with a firm shift but don't want anything ridiculous or bone jarring at light throttle. Should I use the blocker rod or not? Thanks.

I put a blocker rod in my 2000 ram Cummins 47RE , ... shift kit was a variation of the TF-2 for OD trans... the shift was so harsh I took it out the next time I dropped the pan to change the filter.

Street car like you describe , I personally would not use one.

Probably not. You could try it. Not like it isn't reversible. But based on your description, it will likely be too aggressive for you.

I was told to not use one on a street trans.No reason was given but it was from a person who knows 727's.
