Will the adapter from flat-o or speedway work on a 226 flathead 6?

I've never purchased or used an adapter of this sort, but I've considered it and done a little research. I think that I prefer the design that Speedway Motors sells. It will be compatible with just about any small block Ford transmission if you want something different down the road. Flat-o's kit limits you to the C4 only.
