Torqueflite Help!

[russty6]

Hey guys. I'm leaning heavily on swapping the poly 318 to a 440 and I want to stay with the push-button shift. I am in the market for a big block 1964 torqueflite trans. Is the early push-button 383 setup the same or compatible? Thanks in advance!
Russ.

The 383 tranny will work with the 440

You should be able to use any big block 727 from 62-64. They should all use the push buttons and dash mounted park lever.

With some conversion parts, you can also use newer transmissions. See these guys for advice:

Thanks for the info. I, like a dumbass, let a friend of mine scrap a 383 w/trans because I was thinking 383 small block!

Thanks, will be checking this site out. Meanwhile, guess I'll be scanning CL for a 62-64 car to scavenge.
