I have an Aston Virage with the 727 mopar box and it is getting on my tit.

I dont suppose anyone here knows if a manual valve body would fit the virage box?I had one with a ratchet shifter in a charger many years ago and fancy doing the same to this.

Thought this would be an easy one but...

realsteel.co.uk only list manual valve bodies to 1977 and tciauto.com just say 67 onwards.

Maybe the guys at moparuk.com may know?

Can't even make my normal 'buy a chevy' comment as I'd lurve a Virage.

I've asked on Rebel V8 if anyone knows or if someone can ask on MMA.

Are you sure it will fit the 727 in an Aston Virage?
I want to fit a ratchet shifter as well but will leave the existing torque converter as dont want to do the high stall speed route.

If it's a 3 speed TF727 it will fit.What year is the Virage? Bellhousing and tail housing differences do not matter.
The rachet shifter is no problem.The problem you will have is blending it in to a Virage interior.
