I need help identifying my transmission.

I've recently decided to revive my 1990, but I'm not completely sure what model it is. I just pulled the transmission (two barrel) and tried to match it up with a model listed in the Haynes manual. The problem is that I know the engine is a V6, but the manual implies that the V6s only had one barrel carbs. So... Could anybody lend a hand in figuring this out? Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: I need help identifying my transmission.

if it's a three speed, then it's the A-904 transmission. If it's a 4-speed overdrive unit, it's the A-500 transmission aka 42RH by Chrysler.

My mistake.. and a bad one.

Ok, so it was late and I was thinking about ten things at once. I know there's no such thing as a two barrel tranny... I meant the carburetor. Its a V6 with a two barrel Holley carb, it has the numbers 3443 cast about 2 inches above Holley on the front, but I have yet to find that listed as one of the models. With this in mind, does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for the response though.

Re: I need help identifying my transmission.

do you have an overdrive on/off switch somewhere near your dashboard? If you don't like it was mentioned before you have the 3 speed A-904 transmission.
