As for the differences between the 500/518 case sizes, they're negligible. The overdrive section measures the same, and from that point forward you're talking the difference between a 904 and a 727. Both transmissions will require cutting the transmission cross member and welding a piece of fitted flat stock in its place. Make your decision based on the condition of the two, and intended use. Size matters not (obligatory Star Wars quote).
actually, there was a post here years ago for E and '71 up B's that put a 518 in them WITHOUT cutting the t-bar xmember, but by trimming some of the ribs on the OD case....dunno if anyone has the pics saved anymore...
