Close enough that you can look at the trans and figure it out. https://www.flowmastermufflers.com//...ogs/Manual.pdf

Not sure how Flowmaster got involved in transmissions though.

There are guys who are really into the casting number thing and how to figure them out. I'm not so great at that as if I can't find it by a Google search of the number or a bit of Looking though casting number lists I'm lost.
Thanks for the link! It looks like I have a Saginaw 343. Now to replace the shifter!
