here is a note that might or might not be important. if the trans is a 1965 or older, which if it is from a 413 it will be, the trans does have a rear pump. meaning it can be push started. the 1965 was the last year a 727 had a rear pump. in cars. they did use 413 in motor homes in to the 70s the last year , iam not sure. but the motor home 413 had lower compression. my dad put the motor homes pistons in a 1965 413 bolt in, but not cheap, balance is same. CR goes from 10:1 to 7.5:1. still ran fast, on low octane
