i have a 727 out of a 77 or so motor home,it had a 440 in front of it and a Dana 70 behind it,it has a HUGE bolt on yoke on the back of the trans and is a short output shaft,so.....is the shaft diameter and spline count the same as a regular 727 ,or is this dude a creature all of its own?,no plans to use,just wanting info in case

There are two versions of the motor home 727, Class A chassis that have the emergency brake on the tail shafts and the class B and c that don't have it there. It sounds like you have one out of a one ton class B or C van chassis To answer your question on both versions they are for motor home applications only I am going to use one of those cores to take parts out them to convert the front of a pre 1967 car tranny to the later front pump and input shafts so I can use the 1967 and later torque converters, the front half share parts with the rest of the 727 of the same years Not so on the back half

The tranny can be used in our cars if the output shaft and tail housing are changed. I use that tranny in my builds because it is usually cheap and if Mopar thought that the internal changes were tougher then who am I to argue.
The output shaft from any 727 BB or SB will go into the pinion set, but there are 2 different spline pitches to watch for and mis-matching them will shorten their life expectancy.
'75 and back use a 45* pitch while '76 and up uses a 37.5* pitch. The later shaft has an extra groove in it to identify it.
Master, again and still

Actually there are three different spline angles, it was changed again in '94 to 30°.
