Are all 65 BB 727 transmission the same?

Hello,

Are all 65 BB transmissions the same? I think I remember being told that there are different transmissions between column shift and floor shift. Is that true?

Thanks

I believe both are cable operated and the same. The FSM doesn't show two different 727's.

Although not shifter style related, my 66 big block 727 has a coarse spline input shaft. I didnt find that out until my new converter showed up with the more common fine spline snout. I wound up getting an newer 727 with the fine spline shaft and rebuilding that one.

A-727 transmissions from their inception until 1966 have 19 splines on the input shaft. Non-lockup 727 transmissions from 1967 onward have 24 splines. Lockup 727 transmissions that debuted in 1978 had 23 splines.

I think the '65 transmissions are the same but the cable ends differ between the push button and consule shift versions....

The manual valves in the valve body are different- the stops on the shaft are different. So is the "rooster tail"- the arm inside the case that swings around and touches the neutral switch tip. Oh and the neutral switch end and the barrel that receives the shift cable is slightly different. Change these parts out and it's all the same.
