    I have a sbc to flathead transmission adapter. What flywheel,clutch disk and pressure plate do I use to link to the original transmission?

    There was an EXCELLENT article on this in about a month old Hot Rod Deluxe...can ayone scannit? It gave some modern parts options, so you don't need the traditional '49 Merc pressure plate.

    Since you use a sbc bell housing,you can use GM stuff.I used an old Borg and Beck pressure plate with mine.......
