New to Y-blocks,gathering as much info as I can.Long term project Merc was slated for a nailhead,but that's all changed.Picked up some junker motors here and there,hopefully I can get one or two good ones out of the mix.Haven't taken the flathead out yet,but wondering what problems I'll run into with this swap.I know LH exhaust is one issue,what about oil pan clearance? All my cores are front sump,I'm thinking I may need a truck pan,or a T-bird? Are they the same?

Anybody got an old Hurst front mount for sale?

AOD with an adaptor looks good to me.

What else do I need to deal with?

Thanks in advance..Since I found this site from references on the HAMB,I've spent hours reading old posts..You Y-block folks are a gold mine of info....Bill
