I recently bought a 392 hemi. Atatched was this ?????? my grand father says its a section or part of a fluid or hydro drive(semi automatic) what does that mean. Never saw a tranny that was auto AND standard. Has any one used these things. I bought a adapter and bell housing to use a 727 so i dont know what im goig to do with this.

If your hemi came with that trans installed I'd double check the ID numbers on the front of the block to make sure it's a 392. I don't think any 392's came from the factory with the fluid drive trans. Only early 331's.

Good point. '57 & '58s (only years that 392s came in) came with pushbutton Torqueflites didn't they?

Check the serial number stamped on the front of the block just behind the water pump. Will have a 'CXX' there , the 'XX' being year.
