Re: 63: 6 to v8 swap?
Bellhousing, starter, flywheel, all of that will bolt straight to the V8.
You reuse the frame mounts from the 6 cylinder. Just unbolt the rubber mounts from the 6 cylinder engine and bolt them to the V8 with the three bolts. Now drop the V8 right back into the original frame mounts.
You will need a clutch pivot ball to screw into your V8 block for the Z bar to pivot on.
You will need to extend the alternator wiring since the alternator is mounted so low on the 6 and high on the V8.
You will need to extend the accelerator pedal rod.
I've literally done this swap in 4 hours. It's an easy one.
