Can you identify trans in picture?

The length of the body makes me think TH400, but I'm not an expert on transmissions. Check out the following link, it has pictures of the vin location on both the TH350 and TH400. If it is a TH400 1968 or newer there should be a vin stamped there. Also... there should be a place to attach the speedometer cable on the drivers side. If not, then its from a full sized 1970 or older (mid-1960's?). If you want to install it in a 1970 or older full sized than it doesn't matter as they have the speedometer cable attached to the left front wheel. But if your car has the cable to the transmission be sure the one your looking at has the fitting. John

Just look at the shape of the pan. That will tell you what it is.
It will look something like this (but without all the metal shavings).

These are some case dimensions you should be looking for.

transmutation
it looks like a TH400, and it probably is. has the HD short style tail shaft housing(there is a med. and long). has that beefy cast-in webbing in the bell housing area. has the modulator sticking out at the front above the pan(TH350 sticks out towards the back/facing back), has the electronic kick-down connection(TH350 uses a cable coming out of the passenger side above the pan flange), probably has 13 bolts holding that irregular shaped pan(not square with one corner cut-off)on. has a BOP engine mount configuration, maybe it's a TH 375. they look very similiar, the TH375 has the smaller output shaft identical to a TH350(27 spline, i think the TH400 is 31), and it might have large "TH 375" cast into the housing on the underside. GM used it (375), behind some 350 equipped cars(delta 88, vista cruiser). it's like a light duty 400, less load capicity. TH350 have four bolts retaining the tailshaft housing, TH400's have six.
