If you have a real CX/CY converter, then look at the OD of the rear section of the converter. It should have letters such as "C" or "D". That indicates a "loose" pump. The trucks have no letters or "A". Six lug converters were used for high rpm or high torque applications. There was a special VB and governor for the CX/CY models, that information disappeared, when GM went to computers to store info. The 400 was out of production ,so the info was canned. Russ

Rob,
Any chance you or the gentleman you quoted have an image
of the "letters"? Were they ink stamped or punched in.
Does anyone here have an original SHP 6-lug converter that
they can check for these "letters"? I'd like to know more
about this since this is the first I'vw heard of it.
These are the kinds of details you just can't get anywhere
else.
