well u can tell the rear end whether there is a pan on the back or not, if the rear has a pan on the back its a 7 1/4 if theres no pan and the thr3 member comes out the front its probably an 8 3/4 ,,, u can also go onto a website to tell the difference in the tranny pan to see whether its a 904 or 727.. or u could go on a site that has the vin decoder and that will help u also so have fun and good luck

It's a 73 car so it could have an 8 1/4 too and it will have a cover on the rear. 8 1/4 will be more oval sahped on the back and have 3" axle tubes.

Unless you are going to be racing with slicks the 8 1/4 is plenty good for a small block A-body
