Powerflite was introduced in late (very late!)
1953. I believe it was used in Chryslers and Imperials until the introduction of
the cast iron Torqueflite in 1957. It may have been used in Plymouth and Dodges
thru 1959. 1960 is when the slant six aluminum torqueflite started, while
61 was the last year for the Iron case V8 torqueflite. So I don't think
you'll find a 2 speed automatic Mopar after 1959.

How long was the Powerflite in production year start
and stop? What kind of changes were made if any during the years in
production? When did Chrysler install fly wheels and stop putting the
starter ring gear on the torque converter? Was there a difference in the
torque converter used in 1953 after the mid year change from the Fluid Torque
Drive to the Powerflite transmissions? Who has the best prices on a complete
rebuild kit for the Powerflite?
