1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

i always answer these questions with a question: how big is a house?

the answer varies wildly.

in the broadest of terms, numbers and amount of lift:
>904/727 with an aftermarket floor shifter $$$
>904/727 set up with all factory stuff so it looks bone stock $$$$
>any type of 4 speed AOD

• 42/46RH or A500/518 $$$$ plus fab work
• 2004R or any "new" electronic controlled mopar unit same as above but with more initial $ investment for the transmission and/or control parts
• after market "bolt in" kit (4L60, etc), least amount of work/fab, most amount of $$'s

if you're starting from zero all of the little stuff that supports an automatic just absolutely eats up money hand over fist: good converter is 500+, radiator or heat exchanger + lines & fittings, linkages, yoke/u-joint/driveshaft, mounts. oh you want a shift kit? +250 bucks please. oh you can't do that yourself? that'll be a grand, thanks.
