The '63 Cruiser only came with a 289, unless it's been changed in the interim. That said, the transmission in either would be a T86. If you swap a bell housing be certain to dial it in.Brad Johnson,

The 55 bell wont fit the 63 transmission. The 55 bolt pattern is almost square, and the 63 style is much taller top to bottom. Don't confuse this statement with Ford-vs-Chevy patterns.Bez Auto Alchemy
