Well its time for me to get a trans for my car so has anyone heard of 727 specialist? Is there anyone using a trans from this company? Does any have feedback on this company? Just looking around but right now narrowed it down to ATi or 727specialist

My recommendations would be for

CRT (Cope Racing Transmissions)

or

727 specialists which is Keith Long, who works directly with Mr. Griner of Griner billet valve bodies.

Both are members on this board

Scott

Another for John @ CRT.

i have heard good things about 727 spec. but my first hand experience with john cope at CRT is TOP NOTCH

I have been using Keith's transmissions for many years. Never had an issue.

check my add in parts for sale a have a killer deal on a turbo action 727

How about tranzact trans, anyone running there stuff? isn't that part of indy?

I�m very impressed with Rick Allison at A&A. His company and machine shop is top notch. He has newer CNC equipment and from what I�ve seen, his products are of high quality. Plus, he�s always gone out of his way to help me out. Granted, I�m not a big racer but I know what good customer service is.

I highly recomend the 727 SPECIALIST for MOPAR 727 and 904 transmissions. I have been running them since 1997!! I am also running a Griener reverse manual valve body bought through Keith. We have run a best of 9.49@139.60 in our 1970 GTX.

I would like to update this thread due to needing a reliable source for a street/strip 64 big block 727. Anyone in the past year or so had any experience with Keith aka 727 specialist?

I have his transmission in my junk, plus just had him go through a stocker for my Volare. Very good trans guy. He's also doing his own valve bodies now.

He took over the Griner design I believe

Yes, and he's starting to add his own touches now too.

we had very good luck with the 727 Keith built for us with a 2nd gear start 1200Hp nitrous car 7.73/170.

I used CRT (Cope) for years with good luck. Then I had him redo the 48 RE in my tow vehicle, and what a nightmare. Was shoddy workmanship and sent me the wrong converter twice. At first he agreed to cover the second R & R, but then pi$$ed backwards and told me he would only reimburse me for a converter. I’d look for someone else if I were you. Jim.

If you want the best 727 or 904 street and strip or all out race trans contact Dave Smith at Pro Trans at 661-940-7400, he is the Mopar tranny Guru
Their in Texas now, not in SO CA, they got smart also and moved out of CA

I really think that something has happened with Cope. I know of other problems folks have had.

I have had John do 3 transmissions for me , always a bit salty .. the last big block one I bought had couple small issues, when I asked for advice he was kind of grumpy ,

I'm going to have A-1 do my next transmission. They are fairly close to me and they have built a bunch of transmissions for guys I know. https://www.a-1perf.com/
