Looking everywhere.
Looking for a Cragar 302 Trans Adapter which adapts the Caddy 390 engine to the early ford 3 speed transmission (open drive shaft).
Here is the early ad for it.

I am still in need of this adapter.

Still in search of the adapter for the OPEN driveshaft. Must be a Cragar 302.
This fits the early Cadillac 390 to the ford3 speed with an open driveshaft. It is for a 51 ford application.

Geiser here. OhioRick is the one posting this wanted ad for me.

49merclover : We are aware that a 365 and 390 is the same. But if #1454141 is the correct # you see on your adapter, then it is for a Lasalle Tranny. Not a 51 Ford 3 speed like we requested.

For your reference:

Engine: Cad (49-54) & Olds (49-57)
Trans: Early Cad or LaSalle
Flywheel: Stock
Clutch Pressure Plate: Stock
Clutch Disc: Stock
Special Comment: Use stock bell housing. Uses stock Olds clutch release linkage kit $12(!)
Olds part #558701
Cad part #1454141

I grab this info off the HAMB. If this info is wrong somehow then please let me know.
