You only have to swap the adapter ring to change a cast iron powerglide from 6 to 8 cyl. Also These were not "Air Cooled" they have cooler lines. I have on in a 60 BelAir and it is the original tranny that came in the car new. Better have a strong jack to lift it. I bet it weighs almost as much as the engine. These are a neat tranny. it has 2 pumps one in the front and one in the rear. The rear one would let you drift off a hill get up to about 5 MPH and drop it in gear to drift start it. I had to do this alot before I swapped out the gen for an alt.
