I just separated the 727 transmission from the 440 engine.  I have the 727 sitting on blocks and a jack stand.
What is the Weight of a 727 transmission, with and without the converter?
I am trying to determine the arrangements needed to put it into the back of a pick-up.

Just Playing.  A good guess is 200-300.

I pick them up and lug them around all of time.....probably under 200 is my guess.

What do we win?   :lol:

Um, I'm guessing less than that. The converter is heavy by itself - maybe 40-50 pounds? The transmission is about 130ish. Separate the two and it's a one person job to move them around (although NOT fun as the transmission is awkward to pick up).

Trans 130, converter 35, total 165.
Pardon me but my karma just ran over your dogma.

I have, uh, dropped a converter on myself once so maybe it just felt heavier to me... ;)
