Thanks. I checked out lakewoods site, they dodn't show a big block bellhousing for foxbodys, but they had one for an older mustang w/bigblock, but I'm assuming a TKO won't bolt up if it's made for a 4sp. toploader. They did say they did custom bellhousings for any combo, but who knows how much that'll be. Anyway, thanks for all the input. Keep it coming.

Also, anyone know what kind of work it'll be to use a motorplate mounting system if I replace the k-member with a tubular one from Maximum Motorsports or D&D? Will the tubular one with tubular controlarms be plenty strong enough to handle the weight of the bigblock?
