Both are good but the 727 is a stronger trans it will stand up to more than the 904 and would be your best choice.

The 727 is stronger in factory form, but the 904 can be built to be durable and has the added advantage of lighter internals (Faster shifts). Several trannie companies sell beefy versions of both.

For only 300 horse, I would use the 904. It's lighter, and has less reciprocating mass internally thereby less parasitic drag. Also, it will bolt right into your 318 car and won't need a shortened driveshaft.
