[Amc-list] AA engine to trans. adapters

[Brien Tourville <hh7x@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Cadillac is running a 6 speed automatic RWD
in production currently - not sure the fate of these slated
in other GM vehicles as the Hybrids are said to
run 2 speed units in the near future.

Not knocking the AA adapter, but the one the other guys make (name escapes 
me at the moment) is less messy and uses a Chev starter with a crank adapter 
to space the starter out (like AMC did with the 287 and 327) Last I checked 
it was available through http://partsmike.com and someone (maybe on the list?)
borrowed the 327 to Buick Nailhead TH400 (NOT the BOP pattern!) adapter ring
to make a 700r (and the other GM trans) adapter plate.
   Looks like the whole assembly will be for sale soon (327 flexplate, crank 
spacer, starter, adapter ring and even the core Nailhead trans from a 4x4)

that would be advance adapters.  originally intended to allow gm-case
th400s to replace relatively scarce amc-case ones but of course works
for any gm pattern tranny, even stick bellhousings.
 
btw 'aod' is a ford model name, and the th200 didn't have an o/d.  the
th200-4r, th700/4L60, and th400-derived 4L80 do.
