GM transmissions can be adapted to the 617 engine, the drawings are in the sticky. You need:

Adapter plate (see drawing-it's lacking a starter hole but you can figure that location out easily enough)
Small old "SBC (Small Block Chevy V8) bell housing(these are everywhere)
Any Muncie or new process transmission (they're heavy and indestructible) or a NV#### modern transmission
Modern chevy v8 flywheel (the one used on engine with a 1 piece rear main)-this can be redrilled for the 617 crank
Chevy pressure plate/clutch disk/etc.

It takes some machining but those flywheels/tramissions hold 300+HP on the street every day. US pickups beat them around and rarely fail.
