y block tranny adapter in a merc

I did a search and couldn't sort through all of the misc. engine swapping banter. building the 55 merc, want to keep the original 292 y block, but would like to put something better than the original 2 speed trans. does anybody make an adapter to put a C4 or 700R4 up against that ford motor? any help would be really appreciated. thankyou

wilcap (google them, not sure what thier site is) has an AOD kit, they were working on a 700R4 kit, not sure how far they got with it tho. check them out.

 

found them wilcap.com . ph # 805 481 7639. they have a complete kit to go to a chevy trans, with an altered mopar starter for roughly $650.

 

you got em. nice guys.

 

http://www.transmissionadapters.com/ford_y_block.htm, check these guys out... have been researching this for the 292 in my fairlane.

 

There are also two other companies that make AOD adapters...Bristol Services & Hollywood Automotive. In addition, Flat-O Products makes a C4 kit that is more of a direct bolt-in, for both cars & trucks: http://www.flat-o.com/carproducts/yblock.htm


The Hollywood, Wilcap, Bristol Services, & Bendtsen kits are all adapters- nothing more, nothing less, so you will need to expect some fabrication, driveshaft mods, & so forth.
