I've decided to take out the 261 which will be for sale sometime in Nov. A friend of mine just took out a 305, mild cam, 4 barrel with just 20,000 miles on it out of his 53 chev sedan delivery and GAVE it to me. Now the question is I'm keeping the powerglide for now, I know the 305 will bolt on it, but do I need to change the flex plate????????? Thanks Brent
An original 1961 Powerglide would be cast iron. For 1962 the Powerglides behind 327s were aluminum, for 1963 all the remaining Powerglides went aluminum.

Thanks guys, but just for the asking, I had a 283 in my 61 pontiac when I went to high school, which was the original motor, would it had to fitted on a cast iron power glide being it was a 61. thanks
Ok guys help me out here, bought an aluminum power glide out of a 67 chev, has the long tail shaft, is there a short tail shaft for this trans, and if so where can I find one or buy one. Thanks Brent
