If you click on the link I gave above (in blue) it will take you right to the article. If for some reason it does not (???), just copy and paste it into your browser. I just tested it and when I clicked on it, the article popped up ready to review.

1963 Bonneville

I noticed one thing was missing from that article for a 63. You need an adapter ring for the crank output to go from 2.60" to 2.75".
I ordered mine from Bruce Fulper of pontiacengines.com otherwise Butler Performance sells one as well.

1963 is the only year that has that pilot in the end of the crankshaft. He will also drill out the bolt holes to 7/16", my '63 Bonneville has 7/16 holes around the bolt pattern. i learned that one the hard way trying to install a 315 Super Hydramatic from a '64 Bonneville into my
'63.
