I just inherited a 62 from a friend with no engine and a bad trans. It is in great shape in all the important places and I want to take the engine install as a DYI project. I have limited experience mechanically but very skilled friends who can and are willing help out. I was able to source a low mile 3f from a 60 locally for a good price and have found an automatic trans from a 62 - any reason why I can’t couple these? Obviously the 60 was an manual, but I don’t really want to have to do that swap with limited experience. There will be plenty of fun learning involved in this process so I am happy to keep it closer to how the tuck was intended to live for now. Any major differences I am not considering beyond the EFI on the 3FE that would cause this not to work. Thanks in advance for any advice or insight anyone can offer.
