Look in the two ports where the housing bolts to the manifold ... there is a number cast in the housing ... if it's a 14 - that # is cast there ...

And, yes it will let your modified engine breath easier. You might lose a little quckness of spooling at lower rpms, but when you put the 370s in you'll get it back and then some!<br><br>Just put mine in Sunday evening, WOW! Feels like I can do 80mph in a block. 
;D Another interesting side effect is that the trans now WOT shifts at about 200rpm higher (2700) than before. Maybe the TC is making higher pressure, which in turn causes later shifts? ???
