Donor vehicle info needed

[croman69z28]

Hey Guys. First post from a Mopar newbie. Building a 1929 Tudor A. I want to go a different route than normal, so I got a '68 slant 6 for it. I want to put an auto in it and would like some advice from you guys on my options. I know nothing about the Mopar transmissions and am asking for a little guiding light. A 4 speed auto would be awesome but it needs to be hydraulic and not electric. I plan on eventually sticking a small turbo on the slant but power numbers will remain docile. Also, if its not too much trouble, an idea of a suitable donor vehicle and year model would be very helpful. Thanks in advance for the help.

The 904, which was the 3-speed auto bolted up behind the slants from the sixties and at least early seventies, was similar internally to the 904s used behind small blocks and very strong. Some reckon they're stronger than the 727s.

I don't know about the more modern (read '4-speed') autos as they never came here.

But why not go for an A833? Especially for an overdrive one out of a pickup... easy to find, bolt right up, give you a cruising gear as well as low gear for quick getaways.
