The A833 for the a-body has a shorter tailshaft and tailshaft housing than the B/E body unit.   You also have to make sure that the front input bearing diameter matches the bellhousing as these came in at least 3 diameters depending on the vintage and application.

I voted for "trans" at the top.  How did you vote?
