PS my 216 is a 1953 the 261 i am looking ot buy is a 1954.
One more question. Will the 261 bolt up in place of my 216 without too much modification? The seller says the 261 will bolt right to the tranny (4 on the floor) in my 3600.
I don't mind doing some mods by don't want to change my tranny unless I have to. In that case would a T5 bolt to this 261?
