Default 1932 transmission prefix 18-oooooo question

I'm putting a 36LB V'8 engine in a 32 with it's what appears to be a 32 stock
V-8 transmission. The 32 clutch appears much different and the flywheel is indented . Will the 36 engine fit without any problems. This is the first 32 I ever worked on and am concerned the bell housing may not work between the 32 transmission and the 36 engine. Any input would be appreciated FrankPKNY

The '32 transmission case and input shaft will mate just fine with a '36 LB or non-LB or any other flathead V8 engine of the period. Ignore the '32 clutch and flywheel and use those intended for the vintage of the engine.

No, but sometimes I make good guesses.

Thanks for the information. I thought it would work with a nine inch clutch set up. I love these old Fords. FrankPKNY
