3+3 question

My friend has a 1976 3+3 with a 350 engine, on the option sheet it says that it has a hydromatic ( I think) it only has D 2 1 on the tranny, Please help ID the tranny. Thanks

What does the tranny pan look like?
Square with a corner cut off - 350TH.
Pretty much not straight and looks like an island - 400th.

On a 350 wouldn't it almost certainly be a TH350?

I thought TH400's were only used with 454's and c20's etc.

if it is a 3+3, it is certainly either a C/K 20 or 30, so it could very well be a TH 400.

....but TH350, TH400 and TH700-4R for example are all really Turbo HydraMatics, or THM-xxx. I dunno if that's what you meant?
