    Never had seen a decent hot rod meet 'til We went to Macungie
    ( just the Philly indoor convention center winter show )
    My wife was laughing at my reaction as we walked in down rhe main drive.
    I froze in awe, losing my jaw

    That’s the way they should be done. Looks like you went to a bone yard in 1964-5 and found an engine for a swap. Bought a transmission adapter and “bolted” it in. Nothing looks better to me than a stock air cleaner with the proper decals. You just doubled the hp of your 51 and probably almost doubled the mpg if you’ve got an overdrive. Looks great.
