    Part # 227PS5401CTC will this engine hook up to turbo 400 from a 1972 Chev that has been built for street and strip performance without a adapter needed,or will I need to go to a later model Chev 4 or 5 speed auto transmission to mate up this to engine.And if a adapter kit is needed does you company sell such a kit and what would it's part number and price be. I plan to add a {gear vendors} overdrive to make the car street able because it has a Chev 4:10 12 bolt rear end as of now do you sell that product line
