Default 60 Impala help

Anyone out there know anything about these cars? I just picked up 2 60 Impala 2-dr hardtops sitting behind a shed for 30 years. One is nothing, I was told it's a 283 auto, but the other one might be special. It has the crossed flags on the trunk, which I understand indicates a 348. However, the old guy I bought them from swears it was a 348 Tri-Power. I don't think he'd lie to me about it, and he definitely wasn't in it for the money, he practically gave me the cars. Is there any way to I.D. a Tri-Power when the motors gone? Bigger fuel line, etc.? Oh, and the car appears to be a factory 4-speed. Is this unusual? I was under the impression that big cars didn't get the 4-speed until 61, when the 409 came out. Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me.
