Hi everyone. I am new to the site and a fairly new owner of a beautiful 65 coupe. Had some issues when I brought her home but the new engine should be going in soon. Has anybody replaced their original 289 with a 302 and AOD transmission? That's what I'm in the process of doing right now and was wondering what has worked well for everyone else. Thanks for the feedback.

Never run out of real estate, traction and ideas at the same time.
Hopefully by Sunday. The remainder of the parts I want to replace should be here by Friday. Just have to figure out the shifter linkage...
