sry youll need to get a v-8 trans and make sure your torque converter is right for the 360 v8 im assuming your wanting to upgrade your a-body? if so you'll need aftermarket motor mounts or a factory v8 k frame cheaper by going the motor mount way a-body exhaust manifolds or headers makes it easier and a small block transmission the support for the trans will be the same
goodluck

Be careful when you use a 360 engine because it is externally balanced and you need to insure you have a torq converter that is balanced or you will shake your eyes out when you get it started without being balanced.

Welcome to the forums and can you get the trans that was with the motor or is the motor the only thing you have ? i would just go to a parts yard and tell them what you need and get one in fair condition and have it rebuilt and go from there ...... What are you putting the engine in
