1963 Dodge Dart 270 Convertible for the Wife

I hate pulling the final stage of the motor/transmission down. It makes a mess....

So here is the '68 225 truck engine and the '63 PB transmission torque converter. So what was the magic that makes them mate up?

You gotta have one of these to get the harmonic balancer off. This Mac one is 35+ years old.

Frigg'in motor had the same idea as the transmission...

Not many parts to a /6 that is for sure.

Stripped and inspected. The 225 seems to be a virgin, standard sized pistons and standard sized crank bearing. Perfect for a rebuild.
