Need advice on my 318

Right and then how much is a new 904 tranny or 727 gonna cost me on top of that? Cuz a 318 won't hook up to my current tranny.
Look around, they are available and cheap. I put a 727 on CL for 100 bucks and no calls. I would say a used but "good" tranny will run ya 100 - 150. But shoot, someone wants one out of there garage, you might land it for a 50 dollar bill....
