I6 to V8 swap in a 68 coupe?

[Skyman]

I am planning on doing the exact same swap as you, except with a 289 instead of a 302. So no difference really. I was thinking that the transmission wouldnt hold up, but will it? What kind of 3speed are these?
I have an 8.8 rear end, will that fit? Could I use it to replace the rearend/axle, it also has drums on it too, could those work?

Let me know what you find out, and I will do the same for you, it looks like its gonna be a good project.

Drop me an email if you want to..
