Under normal acceleration, at what MPH should a '65 727 shift? I tried looking in the Service Manual but could not find this info.

What are YOU seeing for shift-points? .. THIS would also depend if you have your throttle-pressure linkage set for max travel.

With light throttle and 3.23 gears the 1-2 shift should occur at 6-13 mph, 2-3 at 11-17 mph.

There are no specs for 1/4 or 1/2 throttle, too subjective.
