Modern Drivetrain Swap into '65 Valiant

So what's the problem with adapters?
Because it seems like an expensive way to go with a complicated setup. You need an adapter, plus a custom flexplate or whatever else. Only worth it, imo, if I get to keep a slant. I get why people use adapters - they like their motors - but if I'm swapping powerplants it doesn't make sense not to keep the engine and trans at least in the same company. It would just be simpler.
