*1967 and later V8s (290/304/343/360/390/401) have a different pattern than '66 and earlier V8s (250/287/327 only).

*All '72-up (calendar year) AMC sixes and V8's have the same bellhousing bolt pattern. Only difference is depth of the bellhousing and consequently the length of the transmission input shaft. They can be interchanged.

*Some early 1972 models might have the old six bellhousing pattern. This includes the 258 six.  
 
*Generally all AMC's of the same year and engine will have the same transmissions, changeover years (e.g. 1975-'76) can be a tossup.

*There has been a report of a T-10-to-early inline 6 bellhousing (aka “Mexican” bellhousing). It's definitely the right shape for a GM bolt pattern, although it’s not drilled. But there are no GM trannies with an 8" input shaft that seem to work with it.

*While the transmissions may be from different manufacturers, the shifter is always AMC. Columns in most AMC/Rambler vehicles are AC-Delco manufactured and therefore can be swapped from a GM product of the same years, but the shifter marker is in the column itself in most AMCs, while GM used the marker usually inside the dashboard near the speedometer.
