300J owners:
For the last 33 years or so we have been reporting that the 300J
transmission assembly part number is 2464426. That transmission number is
correct for the 300J and was also used with the 1963 Dodge and Plymouth 426
Super Stock engines with automatic. 2464426 is the part number as
listed in the 1963 parts manual issued on Jan. 3, 1964. However,
that part number is a “change or addition” to the number issued in the earlier
1963 parts manuals, and I do not have access to earlier
versions.
We have evidence from several 300J owners who believe their transmission
may be original to the car that indicates the original transmission assembly
part number may have been 2408007. This part number was issued late in the
1962 model year and was used with the 1962 Dodge and Plymouth 413 Super Stock
engines. The part number is stamped on the oil pan rail edge on the
drivers side of the transmission. So if you fellas have a J
transmission stamped 2408007, don’t assume it is the wrong tranny! Also,
some of the pans may have a drain plug like those used in 1962 and some may
not.
