Sorry to bring this up but @QuickDart360 your mailbox is full. Did you reuse your old spindle, and rubber bushing sleeves?

The picture is of one I just got. Just trying to illustrate I know the basic area to look at. On the other trans there's nothing stamped on that spot

Oh never thought of that. That's plausible

Anyone else get one with no numbers at all? I figured I'd have to tear it down. More curious why there's no numbers

Hi all, I bought a 904 lock up transmission a few years ago and I can't seem to identify it or how to effectively identify it (i.e. what car it's from / year made etc.) . I looked in the typical spot on the driver side above the pan and the location where it should be is obvious but no numbers...

Makes sense. Thank you.

Thanks everyone. Any idea what you think the extra water line is for?

Sorry for the trouble. :( I attached a couple more pictures of what's on the engine. I have it strapped down still.

I never really believed in the "-3" being a better motor

Just a normal street car. Nothing fancy.

I see. Well the casting shows 318-3 and is was out of a pickup and has that mysterious extra nipple on the intake ‍♂️. If the heads do take water, can those be tapped and plugged and a new intake put in?

Oh geeze, I just realized the -3 is cut off lol. The plugs were fat but i believe they were 3/4 inch long on the threads. I thought the heads were the run of the mill heads , then I saw that intake and was like wow.

Hi all, I picked up a 318-3 for free yesterday and was told it came out of a pickup. The first picture is of the casting and it's a 78 casted block. It has 4027593 heads but I noticed that the intake had an extra nipple to it for, I'm guessing, to heat up the carb. Would these be those odd...

Agreed
