I have a '56 Coronet with a small block V8 with a 3 speed stick trans. Will a '64 318 bolt to my bell housing?? I have very little experience with Mopars.
Thanks for any info you can give.

 

First all, welcome.

And the 318 is a poly correct? I'm going to jump off the deep end and say it won't mate up.

 

it should bolt up he probly has a 277 red ram ,,or a 270 wich is a poly...how many bolts in the valve covers? of you current small block

 

No idea as to the answer to your question, but welcome to the forum! Got pics?

 

It is the 270 block. I can't , easily, count the valve cover bolts as the parts are locked in the trunk and I don't have a key, so it is going to be a task to get into the car. I can get a ;64 Belvedere with a 318 for hauling it home. It has a pretty good front clip and is a complete car with no title. Thanks for all replies. The '56 Dodge is a 60,000's mile car that has set since the mid '60's because of cracked heads and was sold several years ago at an estate sale. I have owned it for over 10 years and it is setting in my barn. I might just as well sell the car.

 

Welcome to the forum.....

 

if its the 270 block then the 318 will fit

 

Thanks to all for the welcome and the info.

 

welcome, good looking car, love those old 50's cars, id keep it personaly, nice peice of history you have, looks to be in decent shape man.

 

Welcome!

 

It's a solid car for the most part, it has been setting since the mid 60's. But it needs everything.

 

It can be daunting to think about a car that needs everything. but it is a very cool car! I just got done with a 4 year project that needed everything, and looking back on it, it was worth it.

 

welcome to the forum
if both are poly motors, i think it should fit

 

I don't know anything about what a poly motor is. I have always been a Ford person and have several at this time, but this Dodge will make a beautiful car and it was a deal I couldn't refuse. Thanks for the nice welcome and all the remarks.
