I'm wondering how practicle it would be to use a T'Ultra bellhousing to mount a manual shift trans to the Packard V8. No adapter needed??? The main issue would be trans input shaft length. I'm guessing that centering would be rather ez requiring a lathe turned 3 inch centering disk as a tool for centering the trans to the T'Ultra bellhousing for mount drilling..


Been there, done that. Used a B/W T90 trans from a Kaiser with a Jeep input shaft and Jeep floor shifter. The T90 isn't strong enough to handle the torque of the Packard V8 though.
