Newbie 64 Cutlass 455 swap in LA

Hello!
Helping my buddy out with his 64 Cutlass. Its been sitting for years, mostly inside, but now we are going to finish his project! Its in pretty good shape with rust confined mostly to the trunk, trim is pretty good, and interior is in descent condition. It already

has Hotchkiss suspension and a Currie Ford 9" with 3.00 gears. The stock trans is toast and the original 330 will run but its tired. The plan is to swap in a rebuilt 455 (with AC) and back it up with a TH400. Trying to keep the cost down so thats was the reasoning behind using a 3 speed. Done tons of research but still have lots of questions. I'll start a thread in the build up post. Cheers!
