Help with my 54 engine swap

I have a 54 f100 with a 219 6cyl 3 speed, I want to keep the tranny but would like to go with a v8...Now my question...What v8 will bolt to my tranny? Do they make an adaptor plate or something to where I can even go with a v8?

Smile 6 to 8 swap.

Go to www.transdapt.com you may find what you're looking for. Lot's of aftermarket stuff like that out there. Have fun with your project. 50F1wrench.

The cost of the adapter may come close to the cost of a used matching transmisson. An automatic maybe nice for alot of city driving.
