I have the opportunity to get a T3650 for free and was just wondering if it's possible to put a new T3650 behind the 351W in my '69 Mach 1. I suspect that there isn't a bellhousing that will bolt up to a Windsor motor but I just wanted to see if anyone knew of a way to do it. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure the belhousing is integral to the trans and cannot simply be changed out. A 3550 is the one that everyone uses behind pushrod engines.

Ya the 3650's bellhousing is part of the casing and is meant to bolt up to a 4.6. You might be able to find some adapter but I havn't heard of one because the 3550 is the one with the removeable bellhousing. Same difference between the T5 and the T45.
