Wow, That's an awful large transmission to fit into an older Chrysler. I'm afraid you may have to do some unwanted cutting for it to fit. Is there a reason you want to use the 545? It's decent transmission, but there are easier units to install.
Why not use a 727 or other small block transmission?
If you are certain that you want the 545, contact; sharadon Performance.
Denny has been actively rebuilding an modifying the 545 for a while, and will really be able to help.

i had a look and did a few messurements it will be fairly close to fitting this car then i did some messurements on one of my valiants and it would need alot of floor work
the centura has alot bigger trans tunnel also looks like if i do have to modify it, it wouldnt be a noticeable ammount
