Re: [AMC-list] ] 727 vs. 999 converters ????

[Ken Ames <ameskg@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've had 2 that broke. One may have wrecked the transmission but I just changed
it without finding out. It had locked up the engine but when I unbolted the
converter the engine was fine. The other time the transmission just leaked a lot
of fluid out of the front. A new converter fixed that one.
