The Chevy A-833ODs came with Chevy front ends on the transmission, would need an adapter to bolt into a Mopar.

the guy that told me about them said that some had the chevy bolt pattern and some had the dodge pattern---the bellhousing for the dodge one is pretty rare as chevy guys didnt know what they looking at...

Wow, never knew that! So bolting an A-833 behind your 350 is possible with factory parts.

the 833 is a favorite with chevy guys running circle track---remember the 833 hemi is the strongest 4 spd ever and the regular 833 is the second strongest---the budget racers are always looking for them...

and robbins limit your power displays to first and second gear---3rd and 4th are somewhat weak due to being reversed in order on the mainshaft----passon sells a hemi cut gearset for the 833od that is good to 750hp---one of my friends runs one at the dragstrip in a blown stroker 440 with no problems in 5 years---loves it as he can drive on the highway at fairly normal rpms.....

Is that a BB bell housing made for the bigger bearing retainer on the OD trans or did you have to machine the bell housing?

It's a factory dual pattern bell for a truck four speed and the OD833, but you could put any 833 four speed with the correct ring.
