Here's the other side without the shifters in the way.
By the way, Northwest Fab makes an adapter that is .600 thick to bolt these 2 together. It what's can be used with a 4x4 trans without cutting the shaft. |

Had to give the adapter foot a trim on the little cast gusset, so the pan won't hit and can be easily removed.

Been working on this swap some more.
Almost put $400.00 out for a crossmember setup then decided to see exactly why my crossmember won't work. Well, it's too narrow. I did some measuring and found if you cut it right below where the upper and lower pieces bolt together, it dropped right in. |

Had to make adapter plates. You can buy these from Holley for $90.00. Or I went to my local metal supply and bought 2, 6x6x1/4" plates for $5.00. An hour later with some cutting, grinding, drilling, tapping and painting, this is what you get. (Let the paint dry over night) I used the old LS mounts and the stock, poly small block mounts for patterns.
