Re: 53 GMC longbed project
There are adapters to bolt a V8 pattern trans to the early sixes They aren't inexpensive anymore but they are available https://transmissionadapters.com/pro...e-transmission That is adapter, starter Flexplate and all though. His call on if he wants to spend the coin. A Turbo 350 would be simpler but the 700R2 or a 200R4 would let it have a lower geared rear end for a bit better low speed performance.
