I have a '60 Plymouth Pursuit that I'm planning to pull the T-85 from and put it in my TF equipped 300. Has anyone on the forum swapped a T-85 into a manual or auto trans equipped 300 or other C-Body?

I haven't done this, but here is some hardware on Ebay (not mine) for this swap:

What are your plans for the '60 Plymouth?

The Plymouth is complete, so I have the pedals. I've been told that the pedal setup changed for '62 and the pictures in the parts books and manual seem to bear that out. I'm looking for a '62 Newport or Dodge 880 for the parts. Once I get what I need, I'll probably sell or part the Plymouth. It's a 4 door with a few rust issues. If I decide to get rid of it in one way or another, I'll definitely post here.

The other option would be to find a decent Savoy, Belvy or Fury 2 door and swap the manual trans and GC engine from the Pursuit into that with a floor shift. That would be cool, but probably way, way down the road.
