One positive method to identify this transmission is to notice the fluid port on the stator support shaft.  The proper matching Torque Converter will have the corresponding bushings inside the Torque Converter that creates the fluid channel.  This fluid channel allows the pressurized transmission fluid to change the pitch of the vanes.

By looking into this converter, you can see the set of narrow bushings that ride upon the stator support that creates a fluid channel that is a pass-through for the pressurized fluid needed to change the pitch of the Torque Converter vanes.

On the outside of this Torque Converter there are no tell tale signs to depict this converter as a switch pitch style converter.  Some converters will have small welded bumps on the outside, yet in this case, this converter does not.  Looking into the converter you will see 3 narrow bushings with about a 1/2 inch gap between two of them.  This is indicative of being a switch-pitch style converter.
