Do these have a lock up torque converter? What should I be looking at? 1979 Chrysler 300 1968 Barracuda project

It was a bad lockup converter or solenoid. I didn't really care as i just used it for the brake parts. I'd look into the lockup issue first. 526 cubes of angry wedge, pushbutton shifted, 9 passenger killer!
