I know a few on here were looking at my pics and noticed my transmission didn't look like a TH350. I did find two pictures of the transmission on my camera and posted them. I looked up some transmission pictures and it looks like a powerglide? Need help identifying it, pics are under my profile.

It looks like you have a power glide.

If you notice there is an electrical connection just above the pan and under the fluid lines connectors. This is not a Power Glide it is a Super Turbine 300. It was used on BOP lines. Hope you have the correct converter for it. This electrical connection is for the switch pitch converter. You should also have a switch that is either mounted above the throtle cable just above the gas pedal or on the intake. The switch is on an adjustable slide so you can select when the converter will switch pitch. This is a big advantage over a Chevy Power Glide.

I don't think that Gm made a dual bolt pattern bell housing for the powerglide either. Must be the ST300. They do kind of look like a PG.
