[FC] SWAPPING 4-SPD.FOR AN AUTO.

[James Davis]

Nothing on the engine but the bell housing needs to be changed.  Starters 
are the same. There are two PG, before 64 and 64 and later.  The 64 and 
later is for the 164 cuin engines.  All FC with PG had external coolers but 
the a car PG can be made to work with an external cooler. .  You need a FC 
transmission cross member (trans mount), torque convertor, flexplate and 
flexplate bolts (different than manual).  Don't forget the shifter and 
shift cable.  Dashes are the same.  There are a few clamps and screws you 
will need.  I would see Howard R. about what you need.
