A904 ID - Strange Situation

A 904 is a 904, it doesn't matter what motor is in front of it, that is all taken care of by the flex plate, converter and dampner! I would, however, expect to find a 727 behind a 360 in the late 70's,'although it can be either trans! My guess?? The trans went out in the Monaco and somebody swapped that one in there!!

It's quite common to replace a blown tranny with one from a wrecker.. Have done quite a few myself, when customer couldn't afford an overhaul..
