Not too familiar with a T160. What's the trans bolt pattern, input shaft specs? Same as a GM Muncie?

a 250 6 cyl bell is the same as a sbc so it should bolt up fine with the proper flywheel and input shaft bearing. You can use the old school clutch and pressure plate. If you can't find info on the swap look into a more popular muncie or sm465 swap it will basically be the same.
