Default Transmission suggestions!!

Hello! I recently rebuilt my 71 Stangs 351c 2b, and put an R.V cam,Edelbrock intake manifold, Hooker Headers, 4b670cfm Holley Carb, B&M Flywheel, Moroso Oil pan, it already has Flowmaster 40 series exhaust. The only thing I didnt fix was my old and crappy transmission, I am saving the money to get a new performance one because of the new power in the engine feels like the transmission cant get it really open. To make things worse I found out its not even the original transmission, its from an 67 Fairlane FMX trannsmission. I really need help on what transmission that would bolt on to my cleveland in my 71 stang, so if anyone could help or point me in the right direction on what transmission would fit please do so!
Thanks,
Isaiah.

Heres my stang and a pic of the rebuilt 351c.
