Post subject:  new slant on old thread re 727 lockup

My parts collection is soon to include a 727 made for a slant six, and it's the lockup version. I wanna try it in my 64 d100, but wonder the two basics..

After reading all the old threads, these questions remain for me:

Will the lockup input snout go into the existing bearing I previously slid in the '78 crank when I installed an 833OD or do I need to pull the bearing first?

I want a 2,000 to 2,500 rpm lockup convertor (I think) with my new Erson cam from the great forum cam deal. Tom McGibbon recommended it in a call I made during the deal. (The convertor is for a 3.91 posi, truck weight... not car, 28 inch tires) But I can't find such a torque convertor! Where to get one? I see TSI has a 2400 to 2800, but I think that is a tad high rpm for me as a street driver, and I have never dealt with them. Anyone got a favorite source?

Thanks,
rock
'64d100

The pilot on the input goes into the torque converter, not the crankshaft. The pilot on the converter looks just like any other 68 and up pilot. :shock:
