You should post at least an approximate year.

 

From 1957-1961, the connection to the transmission is completely different and wont bolt to a newer car.

 

1962-1966 (1967 in Canada) are the old "wideblock" engine.

 

1967 to sometime in the mid 90s is an "LA" engine. It will bolt to 1962-1966(7), but is a very different engine.

 

In the mid 90s, the "LA" engine was redesigned to the "Magnum". It will still bolt up, but many other things changed.

hi

thank you for explaining so much and sharing your knowledge.  My engine and tranny are 1958.  Are you indicating above, that a 57-61 engine will bolt up to a  '58 automatic transmission?

Things changed a lot every year back then. Maybe. Probably.

Have a 1962 wide block 318 engine and transmission from a '62 Dodge with push-button transmission. Runs well, whole car only has 64,000 miles, no smoke, no leaks. Doesn't need a rebuild. $450 for all, plus freight.
