most-likely it's an A-904-LA .
My '73 Duster 318 had a factory-upgrade A-727-A ( no 904's available when the car was being built , so a 727 was used instead ) .
After nearly 40 years , it is possible that your Duster's got any variation of the 904 or 727 ; may be a 998 , 999 , 904 or 727 .

Well I don't know about the "california special automatic" but I have a 1974 duster and It did come with a 318 and 904, I was told at the time when I had my 360 installed that the 904's were junk, boy was that a bunch of crap, anyway I would bet you have a 904, and if you have a 318 you don't need a weighted (externaly balanced) convertor either. I have a Mancini Tq conv in mine, but I have a 727 now.
Do you have a transmission now? It could have COME with either. The 904 can be identified by basically a square pan with one corner knocked off. The 727 has a kick out in the pan on the passenger's side at the front of the pan.
