Transmission adapter to mate a slant six to a smallbock trans
My understanding is the unit only weighs 25-30 pounds.
The adapter is about 3/4-1 inch thick, so, yes, the trans sits that much farther back. However, there is about that much play in the later trans mount holes, and slack can be made in other areas.
I want one of these so I can mount an A500 automatic overdrive trans behind my slant six. The A500/A518 was never made with the slant bolt pattern, only the smallblock bolt pattern. But Chrysler did make this adapter to mate a slant six to a smallblock trans. Everything old is new again.
