Don,
The trick setup (in my opinion) is to build the 904 to HD specs with a low 
gear set (very inexpensive for the 904 low gear set).  I have been running a 
"built" 904 behind my 340 for over ten years with excellent performance and 
reliability.
We have an excellent Mopar trans builder here.

I am making preparations to swap in a 340 for a slant 6 in my 65 Dart wagon. 
I hadn't give much thought about the transmission until I starting 
inventoring what I have on hand (2 LA 727s and 2 LA 904s).  Since early A 
Bodies only came with 904s, I'm assuming a 727 won't fit without doing some 
mods to the body.  The 904s I have on hand are a 71 (needs rebuilding) and 
an 83 (nice running).   Both were behind 318s.  I would guess the 83 is a 
lockup.  Any pros or cons on using the 83 transmission behind a somewhat 
warmer than stock 340?  Or would I be better off getting the 71 rebuilt to 
HD specs.  Unfortunately all we have around here is one AAMCO type rebuilder 
and one independent, so I'm suspect it would have to be sent off somewhere 
to do the job right.  I'm in the mid-Atlantic area about 80 miles from DC. 
Thanks for any guidance, ideas help, etc you can provide.
Don
