Clutchflite question - 07/14/10 09:52 PM
I recently picked up a 727 Clutchflite transmission, and was wondering if anyone out there has any info regarding the modifications, operation, or technical info on the B&M kit to convert Torqueflites to Clutchflites. As near as I can tell, I have a push button 727 with the kit installed, and the front cover area has been machined off and a GM housing is installed over the splines for the clutch disc. It has coarse splines and someone said it looks like an early 60's GM spline shaft. It looks like the 3 fingered lever that hooks to the clutch and turns the front pump has been eliminated and it may be set up for a direct drive. I've heard that B&M made kits to fit other applications as well. It was the same basic kit, with splines to fit certain engines. I know a guy that has a new, never installed Clutchflite kit that would be installed behind a 351 Cleveland engine with the Cleveland splines, but the asking price is a little high in my opinion. I think it could be modified to go behind a mopar, but don't know if it would be cost effective. Anybody have any info on this type of setup or know where I can find help regarding the Clutchflite? Thanks in advance.
