    Hey Guys it's been along time since I've posted.....But here goes. My Brother has a '61 Coupe Deville and the tranny just took a dump.Radiator rotted out and coolant got in to the trans cooler portion of the radiator fed back to the tranny and well....that's that.. Does anyone know of a adaptor to bolt up a turbo 400??? He doesn't want to put money he doesn't have, into the car. He was getting ready to sell it...Thanks Guys, Big Worm

    Here's just a piece of advice too. If you end up going with the Wilcap adapter (which are the cat's ass by the way), you hafta run a Mopar 318 starter...run a high torque gear reduction unit instead of a stock one...you'll start toasting the stock ones otherwise (speaking from experience)...
