Modern Drivetrain Swap into '65 Valiant

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.

I have a Mopar A833 four speed bolted to a 1956 model Chrysler 331 Hemi. Bolted right on. A deaf, dumb, mute, blind, retarded chimp could have done it. You're talking about a 1" plate and a 1" spacer for the flywheel or flex plate. Nothing complicated or complex. Right. From your original post, from what I gathered, you were keeping the slant six. Have you decided against that now?
