Hi Joe,
FYI.
I got the Trans Go too, but after 6 months it is still sitting on the
shelf in the garage.

I found the instructions very confusing and lacking in guidance.  It is
not very specific for a given model and many of the pictures don't look
exactly like the valve body I have.  I also like to know why and what a
given modification does and frequently the instructions don't tell you
what is going on with a given mod.  For example, it may tell you to
grind a portion of the valve/valve body away, but not let you know what
it does when you do that.  If you install it, please let me know how you
broke the code.

Regards,
Ken

It's interesting that you brought up the Trans Go shift kit for the 727
as I 
just finished reading an article in ALLPAR, "the legendary 
chrysler-plymouth-dodge torqueflite transmission" , that deals with
history and modifications.  
The article was written by Tom Hand, among others, of the Walter P.
Chrysler 
Club.  It is very in depth with many photos and schematics.

  I don't know Mr. Hand or his qualifications, but if you read the
article it 
is obvious he is very educated in the care and feeding of the 727/904.
He 
recommends the trans Go kits and lists 3. (TF-1, TF-2 and TF-3)  and he 
recommends the TF-2 for 95% of his rebuilds as is doesn't sacrifice too
much driver 
comfort.  After reading this info -- among others-I'll be getting a
Trans-Go 
kit.

  For those wanting info on the 727/904, this article has it covered
pretty 
well.  I printed the 30+ page document for further study. (bathroom
reading) 
;-)    Joe
