Do any of you know what the name of that allison is because i've got the 727 3 speed which is perfectly fine but I need another gear for the highway so i'm trying to explore all my options. So far the best thing i've found is a gear vendors kit for about $1,800. any advice would be greatly apreciated.

There's probably several Allisons that'd fit, and probably only half would be an improvement.

I have to wonder how many of these "dey god damb Dodge PoS trannies got all blowed up" transmissions that you hear about could be "fixed" with simple things like band adjustments, TV cable adjustments or TPS fixes.
