I am replacing my 223 6 cyl. 19567 ford engine with a 292 y block and i have a ford-0-matic trans. what parts do i need to mate the ford-o-matic from the 223 to the new 292 y block?
thanks, Bill

You need a Y Bock V-8 bellhousing.  The 6 cylinder converter will work, the flywheel may need a little sanding in the center hole to fit over the flange of the V-8 crankshaft.  If you have the V-8 flywheel, you may have to drill the holes to match the 6 converter.   John
