727 or 904 tranny

Just got my 62 Lancer GT. Looking to do the same but with a 360. Been looking on ebay for a V8 904. No luck. Anyone know where to get one. Seems hard to find. Also anyone know about the factory/dealer installed Air option in the car. I have not found anything on it. Only ask because it seams the condenser is there in front of the Radiator but nothing else. So I do not know if it is an after market unit that was going to be added and never did or an option installed and removed by someone. How do you determine if you have an aluminum block.
With a magnet..... :-)
