350 with a 200R4.  If you get a high horsepower 350 then you should get a built 200R4 for it.

What he said

To elaborate:

350 crate motor - pick your horsepower / price.

2004R because you want a 4 speed automatic instead of the oem 3 speed. 2004R instead of 700R4 because it is narrower and has better gear ratios.

I thought that was the high beam indicator. I don't have a working one, and assumed I need to get in there and change the bulb, so I will be interested in  finding out what it really is.

Also note that the "generator" light bulb must be of the proper resistance. Too little and it will light up at any small difference between the voltage seen from the battery and the voltage seen from the alternator.
