Early 727 to newer -66 and up 727 swap


Hi! I have a Chrysler 300 -64 and im going to change my -64 727 pushbutton to a newer 727 streetfighter, the early 727 have 4"betwen the boltholes on the transmission mount and -66 and up have 2 3/4" so there is a little different. My existing mount is a "floating power" style with a feather between the rubber and crossmember, have anyone do this swap? Do anyone know if i can get some conversion mount/ adapter or something some where? Im greatful for information about how i can solve this.

I'm not a transmission guy but I had a good friend who raced a 64 300 K for years, I can't help but think that this is just a simple tailshaft housing swap. But I could be wrong because of the ball and trunoin 64 tailshaft. It might be that you need a 65 tailshaft housing.

Thanks for answer! It looks like this with the transmission out, there must be some easy solution for this, maybe i have to drill some new holes in there for make a new mount fit
