Hi Mud Digger,

as LZN stated, more info is needed. Manual or Automatic? Original trans or replacement? Is it an Overdrive Automatic, or 4 speed/5speed manual??

We can help if we know what you've got...

Take care, :-)

Hey Aste,

You beat me to it! :D As to the question. The tranny pan will tell you what kind of trans you have...
I will agree with Aste. If it's an overdrive tranny, the 700R4's were the transmissions of choice for GM back then, along with 350cid small block...

BTW - There are a lot of re-build kits and upgrades for that tranny...

I hope this helped, :-)

Thanks guys. I think it is the 700R4 just by looking at the pan picture. I will check it out later on tonight.
