A TH400 is a 3 speed you are thinking of a 700R4 4 speed. If your dash has a spot for overdrive than it had a 700R4 in it if it only has a 3 speed indicator than it came with either a TH350 or TH400. I am assuming the indicator is original.

That truck came with a 700R4. He may have installed the TH350 or TH400.
