Will a '73 Continental Mark IV tranny fit into a '74 Swinger with a 318?

He wasn't using the paint to ID anything, just letting me know that they both had the same blue paint. Also sent me pics of the #'s.
Also, I have been trying to figure out what transmission is in this car. 727 or 904? From everything I've read, it appears to be the 904. Would that be correct?

Google Fram and look up transmission service kits for a 727 and a 904. That way you'll be able to see the difference. On a bad guess, the 318 engine probably came with the 904. That however is not 100%. If my mechanic didn't know the difference between a Chrysler and Ford transmission, I'd be looking for another mechanic. I just looked up the ad for the Swinger. Nice looking car, and for sure that engine is a Mopar engine. Factory decals tell you that. Engine is factory blue. As 413 said, the factory does not paint transmissions. At one time up here, all AAMCO shops painted their transmissions blue.
By the way, I like the green color. Attached is a photo of a 74 Challenger Rallye I owned about 10 years ago, also green exterior, interior and vinyl top. Bought it from the original owner in 2002, with 32000 miles on the speedometer. 360 4BBl. engine with the 727. Another MOPAR I should have kept. :thumbsup:
