I cant remember fully but I'm pretty sure I would have to get an adapter to make 1974 /6 work with my 1964 /6 pushbutton torque flight?

Also if I'm right then can someone provide a link or part number for the piece needed?

You need a flexplate for the year range (67 and older, or 68 and newer) of the engine.
You need a torque converter for the year range of the transmission (67 and older, or 68 and newer).
If using a 67 and older trans/converter, you will need an adapter bushing to go into the end of the crank. This bushing is inexpensive, and available from Myself, Doc, or tfpatty.
If the car is a 65, it would be easier to keep the 65 trans, and converter, using the 73 flexplate and the adapter bushing for the crank.
The 73 trans will bolt up to the engine, but require mods to adapt to a 65 car. The shifter setup, speedo cable attachment, and front U-joint (B&T joint on the 65) are all different.

It's not a part number, just an adapter ring. I think Charlie on here sells them. You also need the late flexplate.

I will be using my 64 trans and a 74 motor. Luckily the engine is coming with the transmission.

I will contact the member about the adapter.

Use the 74 flexplate, the adapter in the end of the crank, and the 64 trans/converter.
I have the adapter available. Send me a PM.
