Thanks John, however my plastic intake is next (I hope).

Well after a bunch of work, the Wilcap flywheel adapter doesn't fit (it took a year to get) almost the only part I didn't make, so now a rework, took the transmission apart, it looks good (luck) I bought it from a guy that had it for a spare for his car, so the work goes on.  

My crank adapter for the AOD conversion also did not fit. Had to have the center machined out. Only problem I had though.

Y's guys rule!

Same problem, also the bolt pockets are not deep enough, the socket head bolts sit above the flange surface not allowing the flex plate to sit flush.

Makes you wonder what crank they use for the measurements. Maybe they all get the adapter from the same Chinese company?

Hi guys, I worked hard Saturday, the crank adapter now fits however the socket head bolts supplied with the adapter are to long (they hit the block) , when I removed the pan on the transmission I found 3 stripped bolt holes so I had to heli coiled them, next my brand new BTE input shaft would not fit into the converter (Huges) it slides in 1/2 the way and stops, I tried a used shaft and it fits fine, I tried the BTE shaft in a A-1 converter it fits fine (?) so I give up for today.

Well after all morning, the input shaft fits (had to reduce the spline .010) mocked up the transmission with the converter it fits! nothing needed, stack up is good, converter spins nice (luck), now to take it apart and finish all the parts,

No work this weekend, going to the Y Block Races in San Diego

Did some work today, almost done with the transmission adapter, still need to place the starter, not enough to photograph, some of this work is slow
takes a lot of measurement, so far I have not had to remake a part (luck)

More work done, adapter done, spacer done (I may paint them one more time), working on mounting the starter next (Ford starter and scruby flex plate)
