Changing Big to Small Block ?

If you just do the engine swap w/400 tranny,the tranny will have to be moved forward correct?

I don't think you have to move the tranny forward, but I could be wrong.

The transmission will be in the same place with a big to small block swap.

no movement of tranny but why are you going to a small block? nothing replaces c.i. or the torque a big block has .good luck
