Hydromatic transmissions were first offered in Cadillacs and GMC trucks in the late 40's early 50's. They became the transmission of choice in the '60's when B&M began modifying them for use in drag racing. This is the transmission that began it all for B&M and propelled all of the most popular gassers of the '60's. Not the same transmission as the Turbo Hydromatic that came out in mid '60's GM Muscle cars. Turbo hydros are an entirely different animal.

What type of transmission does 1976 Oldsmobile delta 88 royal have?
The '76 olds delta had a Turbo-Hydromatic 375 (TH375B) transmission. This trans had a lot of shared internals with the TH400 but in a lighter package. This was a great trans and I actually lost an external cooler and still was able to limp home ~10miles w/o any fluid left in the trans.
