[FWDLK] 1970 440 & 1958 trans in a 1956 Dodge how can they bolt up?

Hello all….

As some of you know I have a 1956 Dodge with a 1969 440 and a 1958 Torqueflite…..Well long story short (and man is the story long) the 440 is now scrap….

I bought a rebuilt 1970 440 BUT it will not bolt up to the trans. Anyone have experience with this sort of swap?

From what I am learning is the previous owner swapped a crankshaft from an older big block maybe a 413 or 426?? into the '69 440 that allowed them to mate up. Is there a kit or anyone know what crankshaft will work in my new 440 that will allow them to bolt up? OR is there a kit???

I am also thinking maybe just reworking my old crankshaft and put it in my new 440, but am hoping not to open up the new engine….

Ideas comments are all appreciated.
