Could be internal mods. Cushion springs removed from clutch packs , clearance issues or could be a heavy spring in pressure regulator.
Badshifter is right on.
I would say you probably installed the imput sprag backwards
should have said- Some nice cars. Love the Volvo
Not trying to throw a wrench into the works here but did you have the throttle pressure linkage hooked up and operating correctly. I don't know...
is your vacuum line hooked up
I vote 64
I think if you look at the imput shafts of the two transmissions you'll find they are different.
Don't know what valve body you have but make sure you are getting enough throttle pressure. Good luck rest of the week.
If its a 3 speed you can run it without a kickdown cable.
towing with the driveshaft attached has the whole geartrain in the trans spinning. If the engine isn't running the pump in trans isn't pumping any...
Metal line is the best way to go. Buy 5/16 brake line that has fittings and the ends flared. You can get it in 4 or 5 foot lengths. If you don't...
If the pump is the problem trans has to come out to fix it.
governor gear will not affect it going into gear. Only if it will shift or not. Same with the vacuum modulator. It won't affect it going into...
I had a t-bucket for years. No hood, no fenders. Drove it in the rain many times no problems ever.

I didn't see it mentioned in any answer that a 727 trans needs to have the fluid checked in neutral with engine running. If you check it in park...
learned to drive on a 1961 English Ford Prefect 4 speed
You could run it without the lockup hooked up. In a light car like a T roadster with the lock up hooked up its probably only going to drop the rpm...
Or it could be a 700R4. either way that's where the speedometer gear housing goes
The locksmith I went to had a ring full of Gm keys. Gave it to me and said try the keys till you find one that works and then bring it back and...
The transmission mount looks like it's welded in and on a C6 its going to be further back.
If the transmission in the picture is the one you're going to use, it's a C4 not a C6
use the flexplate that goes with the motor. If I remember correctly the offset on the C6 flexplate is the same a an AOD. Just make sure when you...
fenders
Just measured mine. It's about 6 3/4 inches. I do run an electric fan.
I ran stock econoline spindles on my T-bucket. They were just like the ones in squirrel's picture. Used them as is, just hooked up all the...
