Transmission Identification
I recently purchased a 1988 K5 Blazer that has had some work done to it over time. I am trying to get an inventory of the major systems so I know what I have. I do know I have a Jasper GMC 350 5.7 L V8. I know the transfer case and Tranny were replaced with a Jasper as well, but I'm having a hard time identifying what I have.
Any ideas for determining what kind of tranny I have...i suspect it is a 700r4 or TH400 as those are the common tranny's for this model.
Ideas for transfer case ID are appreciated as well.
I have already ID's front and rear differentials as 10 bolt GM Coporate.

It should be in this area in the picture...
This is just an example of one in the late 80's

Transfer Case
All transfer cases have a build tag attached to the case.
On the NP205, it is attached to the bolt retaining the Power Take Off (PTO) cover.
On the NP231, NP233 and NP241, it is attached to the rear case half.
On the NV241 and NV243, it is attached to the rear case half. On the Borg Warner 4401/4470, it is attached to an extension housing bolt.
