trans / engine swap

["Kerry Pinkerton" <pinkertonk@xxxxxxxxx>]

No.  You will need an aluminum TF to bolt to a 440.  I went throug this
trying to get a trans for the 57 project (had a 440 with it and a late model
trans.  I wanted push buttons and integrated emergency brake.  Only one year
fits.  I think it's 62 if I remember correctly.  Depending on what you want
to do in terms of a parking gear and ebrake, other years might work.  Some
of the differences are described at:
