46re is electronically controlled, 46rh is hydraulically controlled which one you have, don't know but just shootin from the hip open your hood and look at the drives side firewall if you see what looks like a computer with maybe 3 connectors with about 30 wires attached to it i'd say you probably have the 46re but again i am guessing MonteC is the tranny GOD you could send him a pm or wait for someone else to chime in

Look at that link that J415 quoted you, and the very last post, like he stated.
