Need advice on where in So. Cali. to find an LA360/TF to swap into my 65 273 Valiant

Yeah, I saw that on craigslist. Also thought I'd look for a running car,truck, or van with that combo. A few months ago I ran across a half dozen "Drivers" for under 800.00 but haven't seen anything like that in a while. Might go ahead and put a TF behind the 273 so at least I can get the 8.75 rear in, frames tied, mini tubs, etc.

I'd consider putting a later beefed up 904 in there unless your ok with "massaging" the floor pan. Also takes less hp to run. Either way, you can still get your 8.75 in and get your connectors and m-tubs in.
