Flathead V8 + Automatic trans

I will be getting an early 50's Ford Flathead engine my plan is to adapt an automatic C4 transmission to it do I need an adapter plate to make this work and where can I get one. This will be for my next project. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Check out Flat-o-matic..they got a adapter kit for c4 to 49-53 flatheads

 

Like rg49merc said, look up flat-o-matic. Speedway motors also sells a kit to do it as well.

 

With the Speedway kit,you can even put an AOD behind it!

 

Thank You to all of you for the quick response !!!!!

Flat-o knows their stuff when you run into problems.
So does Speedway?

 

looks like this if you go the AOD route.....

 

Thank You this is what I want to do.

But it won't be TRAD so goodbye nice knowing you.....

 

...is it TRADITIONAL for everyone here to find fault with everyone elses ride?...just wondering....hmmmm

 

It's traditional if it's not traditional... unless it's someone you know....

 

Well now I have my 32 with the V12 Lincoln engine I figure I would build something different for my next project.

Thanks
