can you bolt the a518 trans with overdrive to the 5.7 hemi and use your wiring harness that you build or the hotwire harness and it will work has any one done this combo and was it sucessful im like several people why cant you use the overdrive transmission that comes with most pull outs i have been told that the trans that comes with these motors will not work because the abs brake sensors will not let you has anyone found a way around this problem and used the factory od transmission im currently installing a 5.7 out of a 2007 300c in a 68gtx convertible clone i know you can use a keisler 5 speed or auto trans thats 5,000.00 or use a 727 smallblock and the jvx adaptor and flywheel thats alot less expensive but i want overdrive automatic and fuel injection like everyone else ive also been told that a truck 545rfe trans will also work with lots of mods to the tunnel along with hanging down lower on the bottom any help would be appreciated
