    A better ***le for this thread might be, "What auto trans for slant 6 ?"
    good luck with it.

    An automatic transmission from a slant 6 will bolt right up. Just need to change the fly wheel to the flex plate. Any late 60s to early 70s trany will fit.

    The slant six has a unique to it bellhousing bolt pattern so besides a manual you really only have two options:

    #1. Slant six 904 automatic from any number of slant six cars.

    #2. They used a really rare adaptor in the A-100 trucks to adapt a V8 727 to the slant six. Most likely over kill for this project.
