Hot Rods 1947 de Soto

I just bought a 47 de Soto and it does not come with a transmission and I was was wondering if anyone have changed the ****** I would like to keep the flat head but not sure what I can do to put bolt a 727 or a 350 turbo to it.

 

You have two options for mounting a 'newer' auto trans.
If you want/need to use a GM trans then you will be talking to Wilcap/SpeedGems.
If you want/need to use a Mopar trans then you will be talking to me.

Seriously, unless there is a recent addition to the L6 adapter makers club then we are the only two.

I don’t have a preference on what I use I havnt even looked into a transmission I’m just looking at what adapters there are and wasn’t having much luck. Where can I get Info on what you have

 

His website is listed right under his name "Gary". He is a super guy too, in case you wondered. Really did me a huge favor.

I was wondering the best way to get some pricing for your adaptors. I would like to keep it all mopar and go with the 727.

 

@73RR , see prior post. Thanks.

 

You could search for one of the old forklift and airport tug adapters. Many of them had flathead 6s with 727s behind them. I got the one in my stash of Ebay a few years ago.
