Unless the car has been modified, I'm pretty sure the chassis are all the same regardless of powertrain.

I would think a 63 comet is the same as a 63 falcon,,yrs ago me and son converted a 63 falcon to a v8 and 5 lug frt end and rear and we used a 63 comet to do it......it's just work !! you'll be glad you did it ,when it's all done....thanks and good luck.........pop
