73 cutlass s 4 speed

Hey guys, I have 73 cutlass 4 speed, and the 350 is locked up does an automatic 350 fit in its spot or do you have to still crank for pilot bushing like older small blocks?

You will need your crank, or to have the one from the automatic car machined to accept the pilot bearing/bushing.

Memory's the second thing to go!

I dont have any numbers handy for RPO 73 Cutlass with a stick. Has to be a very low number though.
